BotanoLogos School of Herbal Studies

Georgia's Premier School of Herbal Studies for Twenty-Seven Years!

Home

 

 As we address the challenges of a global health crisis and see the effects of it on our own small community here in the North Georgia Mountains, BotanoLogos is restructuring our schedule of classes for 2020 to emphasize distance learning.

We are committed to empowering you to provide safe, effective herbal support for your family, friends, and communities. The need for herbal medicine has never been greater and we will be here to provide you with the information you need. 

We are in the process of reformatting our Foundations of Herbalism Program and will be launching it as a virtual program available to students everywhere beginning April 25, 2020. Registration opens next week. 

If you are looking for information about how you can use herbs to strengthen your immune system, here are a few links with lots of COVID-19 resources. Many thanks to those in our herb community who are sharing this information so freely.

Ready to learn about local herbs and herbal medicine?

Since 1993, BotanoLogos has introduced herbalism to thousands of students at our school in the mountains of northeast Georgia.

We offer webinars, classes, plant walks and hands-on workshops for herbalists who are just beginning their journey and those who want to deepen their understanding of herbal practice.

The 2020 Foundations of Herbalism Program is now full. If you’d like to be placed on our waitlist in case we have a cancelation, send us an email.

Visit BotanoLogos OnLine, our on-line classroom, for recorded webinars including Herbal Basics for Everyone, Healing with the Five Elements and From Symptom to Formula. More webinars coming soon!
