Dear Plant Friends ~
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, we have been making changes to support the future of our school and the health of our community. We feel that the knowledge we offer in Western herbalism and Nature cure practices are of great value to the community during this challenging time. Knowing how to utilize herbs and nutrition to keep you and your family healthy as well as learning how to cultivate living soils so you can grow nutrient rich foods are very important skills to have right now. Our Community Free Clinic is also a valuable service to our community, especially now that our medical systems are overloaded and cannot handle non-emergency health concerns. We invite you to join us as we are adapting to a digital way of life for the foreseeable future.
We have closed our classroom location in town, but this does not mean that we are closing our doors. We will continue to serve the community using digital platforms, phone consults, online classes, pharmacy orders for delivery or pick up, and upping our game to meet the needs of our community during this pandemic. If you have any questions about how this may impact our ability to serve you please reach out to us in an email. We are here for you.
Free Clinic ~
We are now scheduling Zoom video calls for all free clinic consultations. All pharmacy orders will be filled and brought to town for a drop off. Please check back for updates as we expand our services for our community and add more clinic dates.
Footprints in Medical Herbalism 2020-21 ~
Our program this fall will be completely online! We will utilize video conferencing for classes, pre-recorded videos of herb walks and other creative digital ways to help you learn from the comfort and safety of your home. Now is the perfect time to begin a formal education in botanical medicine.
Thank you for your patience and support as we make these shifts to better serve our community and our future. We are in this together.
Yours In Health,
All of us at the ACORN School of Herbal Medicine
