January 25: From Seed to Safe Use: Defining the Modern Apothecary

Throughout the written history of the West, the apothecary has long filled an essential role for the community. Refined for the western mind during the Renaissance, the apothecary was effectively disconnected from the rich heritage tediously developed by generations of dedicated practitioners who prepared and parceled botanical medicines. As herbal medicine once again moves to the forefront of our national consciousness, more of our friends and neighbors visit their local clinical herbalist for support. As the demand for mindful healthcare grows, it is essential that we rediscover our long-standing traditions and their relevance to a viable clinical practice.

As herbalists, honoring the apothecary is a fundamental aspect of our quest to honor ourselves. In this joint-lecture, we'll explore both the history and the many facets of the modern day apothecary, all the way from seed to safe use. Presented by Dr. Eric Yarnell, Eric 'McKey' McKinney, and R. Erin 'R.E.' Murrell.
