Member Experience:
"Meeting Carol at an herbal conference has been a Godsend! Rosemary Gladstar is a common mentor between us so Carol and I approach herbs in a similar way.
I feel that I can share my herbal insights freely with Herb Gals as it is a welcoming group with Carol as coordinator. I receive personalized assistance from our Herb Gals gathering and private Facebook group as I travel along my herbal journey.

Member Experience:
"I have been a forager for quite a few years now, and with the skills I learnt over these years I have had many feasts and made a few herbal remedies.
Carol, my wonderful, knowledgeable friend has given me that chance. Her knowledge and passion for herbs is unlimited, and she is willing to share. Her format and classes are inclusive and relaxing. Questions are welcomed and answered.
Whether you are a novice, or an experienced herbalist, the welcome mat is there, and there is something to be learned. Thank you, Carol!

Our goal is to build community around the practical study of herbs in an uplifting, easy, accessible and fun way!
Each month, we focus on a specific herb for our discussions and activities.
You'll be provided with herbal recipes, remedies + project ideas related to each herb.
You'll also be invited to join us on zoom for two online discussions to go deeper into the topic.
(And if you can't attend live, don't worry -- everything is recorded and put into the member vault for you to watch later!)
Lauren's Experience in Herb Gals!
Here's how it works:
As soon as you join us inside Herb Gals, you'll automatically get access to our member vault.
That's 24 months (and growing) worth of recipes and project ideas to get you going right away!
Each month, you’ll receive an ‘Herbal Highlight’ document for the chosen herb.
This includes an outline with information about the herb to get you started and prompts to help you research and get ready to experiment!
We'll meet twice for our scheduled discussion calls to talk about what we are learning, together!
Each meeting will be facilitated by Carol (or a guest herbalist) who will guide the group discussion, ask + answer questions, and provide additional recipes.
Throughout the month, you can share your experience and connect with others in our private group.
As you read about the herb, taste it, make a tea, cook with it or bathe in it, you can record your impression and share it with other eager herbalists.
Member Experience:
My favourite parts of being in the Herb Gals group are the live calls, and all the recipes! It’s inspiring and exciting to learn more about each herb, and chat with everyone about what we’re making. It helps remind me to get to more of the herbal remedies and recipes that I want to try. And it brings a little fun and experimenting into cooking meals as well!

Our mission is to create an enjoyable and inspiring space to discuss herbs.
