Linda is a mentor at The Wise Woman University, a sacred distance learning environment for the reweaving of the healing cloak of the Ancients. She offers a eight week online course on Plants and People: Herbal Medicine Making. The goal of the course is to have participants become familiar with herbal medicine, to become comfortable incorporating herbs into daily life and to gain hands on experience making simple remedies at home.

Participants will have the opportunity to make a small home remedy kit that they can continue to build on over time. The kit could include up to 10 different preparations. While it is not required that participants make all 10 remedies they will be expected to make at least one remedy and one tea or infusion during the six week course and report back on their experience.
