Creating and Using Your Home Herbal Apothecary

THIS CLASS IS FULL! We have opened an online version of this course on November 20th, 2026. This version will also be recorded. Please see This page to sign up!

A home apothecary is a collection of herbs and herbal preparations: tinctures, salves, dried herbs, vinegars, for the purposes of having easy access to herbal remedies you need for yourself and your family. Creating your home apothecary is an important step in your herbal journey—an apothecary can help you grow in your herbalism practice and integrate herbalism more fully into your everyday life.  In this class, we will engage in an interactive workshop in how to setup and use a home apothecary. This includes: what herbs to include, materia medica information, record keeping, location, storage options, labeling and organizing systems, maintaining potency and freshness, and additional supplies needed.  We will also cover how to use your apothecary and how to continue to build your herbal wisdom through your apothecary. Dana will share several different models that people use.  Participants will leave class with a plan to create or expand their own herbal apothecaries.
