Fantastic Intro into the world of herbs
Posted by Andrea on 29th May 2026
I just completed Beginning with Herbs and I'm already practicing what I learned at home! I wasn't sure what to expect walking the first day but Bridget has such a welcoming personality that I was immediately at ease. As a copious note taker, I found myself really enjoying the depths I could take the knowledge was receiving, and I especially liked the practical applications of what we learned. I made a rose-lavender hydrosol at home and use it every morning as part of my skin care routine, as well as a respiratory tincture from gathered mullien in my yard.

So exciting to open my world to Herbs as Medicine!
Posted by Beth on 28th May 2026
I thoroughly enjoyed this class after just moving to the area. I enjoyed Bridget's excellent teas, making new friends and learning a lot about our natural herbal world. I took my grown kids with me on the herb walks in the woods and have already signed up for another class where my husband is also gonna go.
Bridget is an excellent and informed teacher. We would make something with herbs every week to take home, which was a great opening to all of the possibilities that are available to us using herbs.
I highly recommend the Beginning with Herbs class.

So exciting to open my world to Herbs as Medicine!
Posted by Beth on 28th May 2026
I just completed the Beginning with Herbs class. Having just moved to the Santa Cruz Mountains, I was looking to build some camaraderie in my new community and learn about the vast medicinal properties of our natural world. Not only did I make new friends, I thoroughly enjoyed the fresh brewed teas from Bridget's kitchen, catching up with everyone as we drank great tea and studied all kinds of different ways we can make helpful concoctions using herbs. I also took both of my grown kids with me on Herb Walks in a park in Felton and to Henry Cowell State Park. I also love all the products she sells, and I have already signed up for an additional class with my husband. Great beginners class. I can't wait to learn more!

Great class from start to finish!
Posted by Unknown on 28th May 2026
Not sure what to say - this class was so informative and helpful from beginning to end. I love the way each class is laid out to learn something new each day and how it builds on itself later by layer.
Tea everyday was delightful. You can tell Bridget loves teaching and it shows how passionate she is about plant medicine. She provides a harmonious and welcoming learning environment. I look forward to the next step in learning with her!
