Wolf Journey Book Two – The Traditional Herbalist guides you on a path of Ethnobotany & Plant Conservation as you blossom into a Traditional Herbalist.
As you walk through the course, you will move deeper and deeper into the skills of plant conservation, and the knowledge of ethnobotany. Ethnobotany means understanding the relationships between plants and humans, including how plants are incorporated into our lives, as well as how humans are dependent on plant ecosytems. When an herbalist who understands ethnobotany harvests a plant, he or she honors it by preserving the plant to for all its medicinal, nutritional, and utilitarian gifts. You will also learn to conserve and caretake the land, whether it be the soil in potted plants placed on our balcony, or on the edges of a large farming enterprise, to the benefit of all creatures.
