Learn the foundations of Herbal Medicine Making in Herbal Pharmacy with Wild Rose College.
Clinical Herbalist & Medicine Maker Yarrow Willard will teach you everything you need to know about herbal potions and therapeutic herbal preparations.
Is Herbal Pharmacy for me?
There are multiple ways of getting plants into people for their therapeutic properties to have effect on our body/mind. Whether you dream of being a full-time kitchen witch, clinical herbalist, or having a part-time side herbal hustle, having the foundations in place to prepare effective herbal products is essential to help the people you want to serve and to bring them back for more.
There is so much value in understanding the basics of properly preparing therapeutic preparations such as infusions, tinctures, syrups, oxymels, and liniments–after all, herbal pharmacy is *the* original pharmacy.
Yarrow expands further on core herbal preparation principles with the “extra fun” stuff like herbal shrubs, elixirs, lattes, elixirs, kombucha, mead, mocktails, and more, (and those are just internal!)
With external preparations, he also dives deeper past infused oils & salves into body butters, deodorants, suppositories, and more.
See course syllabus for full details on all the herbal potions you will learn in Herbal Pharmacy.
AND you have lifetime access to course content–so Yarrow is “on demand” for the next time you want to try a new-to-you recipe or technique.
