For more than 35 years, Rosemary has held a simple belief at the heart of this work:
𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲. This belief guides every decision we make.

The Science & Art of Herbalism home study course has been kept affordable for decades so that families, caregivers, and community herbalists could learn in a way that felt possible and supportive.

As the work continues to grow and costs have risen—printing, shipping, and the care involved in supporting students—we’re making a thoughtful adjustment to help steward this offering into the future.

This decision wasn’t made lightly. We’re grateful for the community that sustains this work, and we remain committed to keeping herbal education accessible and rooted in care.

If you’ve been feeling the nudge to begin your herbal studies, now is a meaningful moment to join us at the current price, before January 4. Tap the link in our bio @rosemarygladstar or comment “course” and we’ll send you the link directly. 

Thank you, always, for walking this path with us. 🌿

I “met” Juliette de Bairacli Levy in the Sonoma County library, where I stumbled across her book Traveler’s Joy. I was immediately taken with it and with her. 

Who was this Gypsy scholar who wandered the world with her hounds, her bags of herbs, and small children by her side?

So I decided to write to her.

I was just 22 when I sent that passionate letter. I don’t remember what I wrote, but I’m sure I bared my heart, sharing with Juliette my love of the green world. 

Several months later, much to my surprise, I received a lovely reply. And thus began a friendship that has changed my life.

Many renowned herbalists and healers credit Juliette with being their inspiration. 

She certainly was mine. 

She shied away from things heavily processed, standardized, or fancily packaged. Juliette’s success rested in her ability to care, her compassion, an inner knowing and awareness. 

She relied on earth’s simplest recipes and used plants she found growing nearby and these she infused with her own touch of wisdom and passion.

This 🎥is excerpted from the wonderful documentary film “Juliette of the Herbs” by filmmaker Tish Streeten (@tulsiqueenofherbs). If you haven’t seen the full film yet, be sure to watch it!

Link to watch the film is in our bio.

Welcome to my favorite room in the house! Your apothecary is an important place—but it doesn’t have to be complicated or large even. A dark, cool closet or cupboard works well too. 

Do you have an apothecary? We’d love to hear about!

In my home study course The Science & Art of Herbalism, we cover what you need to setup your own apothecary. If you’d like to join us now while it’s on sale, comment ‘apothecary’ and I’ll dm you the link.
