Discover the foundations of herbalism in Herbalism for Beginners: From Plant Identification to Botanical Crafting, an educational class designed to introduce students to the fascinating world of herbs, botanical ingredients, and traditional plant-based preparations. This class combines a live virtual learning experience with a flexible, self-paced online course, allowing students to build foundational knowledge of herbalism while exploring practical ways to work with botanical materials.

Part 2 consists of four online course modules that students will access by logging into their Peach Academy student account.
