Here at Artemisia Botanicals our hope is to engage with the community and provide a safe space to learn and grow. We will be offering classes monthly that will be posted to our website and social media pages. We hope you will be joining us and in the future we will be hosting Zoom classes as well for our patrons across the world! 

Current Classes:

Green Witch School of Herbalism: The Green Witch School of Herbalism is dedicated to the understanding and use of herbs and natural energies as a way to heal the body, mind, and spirit, while achieving optimal health and well-being.  This program is a journey into Gaia‘s green garden, and will last nine months, from March through November. It is a time to grow the seed of interest and education that are planted before you enter your training. While it is an immersive course of study, we hope it will be just the beginning of a lifetime, a relationship with plants and their gifts that they share with us. 

Foundations of Witchcraft: Open your eyes, take a deep breath, and take a step towards the craft of the wise! Witchcraft is both old and new with many branches and traditions. However at the heart of them all is a foundational principle of self empowerment. Learn the foundational practices of witchcraft and be confident in your ability to empower yourself to take a path that enriches your life and world around you. Once your eyes are open, they will never be closed again. Dare to learn & shape your own unique practice, and at the end of it all, you may call yourself a witch. This course will meet about twice a month for a year and a day.
