Guest guest Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 There have been a couple of questions about CEU courses recently so I thought it would be fair to recommend these...Many of you have attended our annual CEU field trips(the Los Padres trip has been happening since the early 90's) in the past and it is that time of year again. American School of Herbalism has been renamed Sylvan School of Botanical Medicine and we are offering a couple of outings in the next month and a half that may appeal to those of you who are tired of attending CEU events in stuffy conference rooms in hotels near the airport. The outings focus on concepts of integrating native plants into Chinese medical practice and touch on harvesting, preparation, and formulation. Please email sylvanbotanical if you'd like more detailed information about these courses as there is scant info on the website. Dates and locationMarch 27, 28 - Southern Ca. Desert - multiple locations between San Diego and Imperial Counties April 10, 11 - Los Padres Natl. Forest, Eastern Big Sur Hope to see some of you out amongst the plants this Spring.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 All, I just want to take the opportunity to trumpet my recommendation for these trips. I have known Ben for a long time. We have done many of these trips together (both just the two of us wildcrafting and botanizing, and as teachers) and I can assure you they are well worth it in many ways. You will get a great introduction to using some Western herbs in your practice, you will get some good eats, and you will have a great time doing it. To be honest, I am jealous I am missing these trips, especially the desert trip as that is the trip that Ben and I did for many years before starting to teach it.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hi All, I have also attended these the past few years and highly recommend them. I will be attending one or both again this year. The content is challenging, inspiring, lucid, and scholarly. My favorite trips have been when I took the whole family (and will this year). My young children LOVE the exploring, the ethical harvesting of medicine, and of course, all that time outdoors. Should be a glorious year with all this rain we've had- hope to meet you out there!

I've heard nothing but great things about Ben's courses. I'd love to be there. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
