The Plant Medicine School Scotland

Apprenticeship in Community Herbalism

 

Study with The Plant Medicine School in Scotland in collaboration with Grass Roots Remedies Co-operative. We are currently offering the 2-year Herbal Apprenticeship.

The Scottish stream has primarily been set up to benefit students living in Scotland & Northern England, offering a more localised learning group, but it is open to everyone. Residentials will be held in a central Scottish location.

 

 

The programme has a maximum of 18 students per class. It is made up of a combination face to face intensive immersion workshops, online studies, films and texts; one-to-one mentoring and live zoom classes. This allows people to undertake some of their studies online at times that suit them whilst keeping pace with their studies. It is a carefully structured course which includes a self-directed study focus to ensure that students develop their own knowledge and skills.

 What We Believe ...

 

Grass Roots Remedies is a workers’ co-operative, based in Edinburgh, Scotland dedicated to celebrating local plants and making herbal medicine accessible to those who need it most.

 

 

At the very heart of all of our work is the fundamental belief that herbal medicine is, and always has been, the ‘medicine of the people’ (folk-medicine).

 

 

 

 

Grass Roots Remedies Co-op will be taking applications for 2025 but are not taking applications for October 2024.
