    WILD HERB RETREATS: No Dates Currently Set for the Next Herb Walk


    A Rare Opportunity to See Common Herbs Growing in the Wild

    These workshop promise to give you a rare opportunity to see common herbs growing in the wild, and to learn their uses and methods of extraction.  Levy guides participants into forests and high deserts to locate such herbs as osha, poleo, arnica, nettles, mullein, valerian, burdock, and vervain.

    Methods of ethical harvesting, drying and processing of wild medicinal and edible plants will be covered.

    Whether you already have experience with herbs or are just beginning the adventure, we think you will come away from this experience with a more comprehensive understanding of the energy and knowledge that plants offer us." -- Ron Levy

    Methods of ethical harvesting, drying and processing of wild medicinal and edible plants are covered, with demonstrations at the Taos Herb Company FDA-regulated laboratory.

    Ron Levy’s formal herb instruction began with Michael Moore, the seminal herb instructor, author, and founder of the Southwest School of Botanical Medicine.  In addition to his preparation of the Taos Herb Company extracts and compounds, Ron leads the Taos Herb Study Group. When asked about his orientation for the retreat, Ron stated “It is wonderful to experience the alchemy that occurs when you combine people and plants.  I think participants will come away from this experience with a more comprehensive understanding of the energy and healing that plants offer us.”
