michigan herb classes & workshops
(well, michigan and a few other states here & there...)
This is a list of my
scheduled walks & classes, into
2010...
of course; more to come.
Please check back every now and again... I'm still working
on next years schedule and more herb classes will undoubtedly pop up
here and there, in different areas throughout Michigan or
elsewhere. If you'd like to be added to an email list that
gives information on my workshops, or to inquire about
other stuff I can or might do, just send an
email or call me at (248) 238-8733.
Have questions about
classes?
I've got answers to frequently asked questions (like
times, weather exceptions and such)
here.
Also, if you'd like a "preview" of
sorts on how I teach, there's an hour long interview I
did with John Gallagher of HerbMentor.com
here.
Want to host a class, walk
or workshop?
I'm always happy to travel and spend time talking plants,
and can speak on a wide array of herbal topics, from a
couple hours to a day to a weekend. If you're
interested in having me offer herb classes in your neck of
the woods (or tropical beaches), just let me know...
