South Texas Mini-Apprenticeships
Step into the shoes of a wild plant herbalist and foodie.
These programs have their roots in our L.A. based 10 month Apprenticeships, but in bite sized 3 month courses. Different curriculum include: learn how to cook, bake and create wild food dishes and remedies as well as ethically forage and wildcraft plants using their spirits for guidance. Together, we'll practice identifying plants, learning about their energetics and preparing them for food and healing.
Connect with the Land
We’ll learn about plant spirit medicine, plant history and folklore, preparing and creating sacred space, food safety, baking/cooking/kitchen skills, botany, identification of poisonous and toxic plants, plant family characteristics, native, non-native and invasive species, gardening, herbalism, wildlife safety, sustainability and ethics — just to name a few things.
Small Groups, Open Hearts
Come with the willingness to learn about what the plants can teach us. Our sections are kept small (between 15 and 20 students) so we can create a sacred space for support and respect to bloom. As we dive into boundary work, we’ll learn what that means for each person, plant and landscape.
No matter your race, gender, sexual preference, identity, religion or any other labels you might use to describe yourself, as long as you’re over the age of 21, all are welcome here.
