This was a really great class to take! Not only was it super interesting, Jo Anne is an engaging teacher, who obviously has deep knowledge of these aspects of herbs. Looking forward to using what I learned to formulate some new items to test!
What a treat!

What a treat! Anything I say is not enough for how much I've enjoyed all of my sessions with Jo -Anne. I've been interested in herbalism for a while and decided that it was time to get some structured training on it, yet I did not have more than a couple of hours to spend on it in this period. I started with Herbs 101 and Herbs 102, where Jo -Anne masterfully managed to deliver tons of meaningful information in this bite-size and hands on classes. Then I registered with my daughter for her DIY Skin Care workshop, which is the BEST bonding and fun activity we've had in a while. Jo-Anne is so knowledgeable,, caring, patient and kind - she makes sure you have a relaxing and enjoyable time while truly learning through working hands on (literally) with tons of different materials. I can't recommend her classes enough!
