Community & Herbal Approaches to Disaster Situations

A seven-week course in being more prepared for responding to disasters through community resilience and disaster herbalism.

Getting it Together

This is me several years ago with my travel kit for disaster situations teaching in Atlanta, Georgia. I've organized my experiences responding to disasters and teaching disaster herbalism into a cohesive course in community resilience and disaster herbalism.

A Practical Approach

True preparation means building a kit, but also preparing the mind and body. Learn from my mistakes and successes to find personalized ways to increase your preparedness in these uncertain times. The course includes eight sections spread over seven weeks with three live videos. The videos will be recorded for anyone who can't attend to watch at anytime.
