After taking a brief (ok so really not that brief) break from my family herbalist course to launch my skin care line, Nourish Baby Organics, I am back at it! I’m so glad to have some more time to focus on it now and I hope to complete it by this summer.
For those of you that don’t know what it means to become a certified family herbalist let me fill you in. The particular course that I chose from Vintage Remedies includes 26 topics ranging anywhere from pathology and biochemistry to prevention and nutrition. According to Vintage Remedies, “Our Family Herbalist program teaches students how to care for their families using reliable and effective natural medicine from a Biblical perspective.” After reading that I was sold!
It's a correspondence course so I do it at my connivence and submit unit answers, projects, papers and tests to the instructor when I can. Once I'm certified I will have the family herbalist credential, FH, and I can go into consulting or just use it for my own personal information.
The course can be challenging but is so intriguing to me that I love every minute of it. It has been incredibly eye opening and has fueled my fire to continue parenting and living as naturally as I can. I am in power of what goes into my baby’s mouth and on his body and the decisions that I make about these things can impact him for the rest of his life so I want to be armed with as much information that I can find to parent wisely.

That sounds soooooo fascinating!! Can you give me any more details? Do they have a website?
PS I LOVE the look of your site. I didn't even recognize it as your first and was confused!
Thank you Tiffany! If you click on Vintage Remedies above it should take you to their website. It's www.vinageremedies.com. They have a great book, The Handbook of Vintage Remedies, that is a great resource to have at home on your bookshelf in case someone gets sick and you want to use a natural treatment. I highly recommend it!
