About our classes:

South River Herbals provides informative, hands-on, and fun classes in a small and comfortable setting. We offer classes to people with a variety of herbal experiences and interests. Because we believe that no one person or system of healing can provide all of the answers, we strive to be a resource by drawing on the skills and talents of many gifted herbalists, practitioners, and teachers in our community, and, as we grow, are offering a greater variety of classes, taught by a greater variety of people.
