Description
This beginner friendly four part webinar intensive series is specifically focused on medicinal plants for herbalists. Starting with parts of a flower, leaves, and roots, we’ll then cover some important medicinal plant families with their unique characteristics. Students will practice keying out and using online floras, tools, books, and other online sources to help with identifying plants. We recommend viewing these classes on a large screen, and purchasing Plant Identification Terminology: An Illustrated Glossary, as well as a 10x loupe/lens.
