Because The Herb Hub is relationship based, we are always asking Hub users what they want to see.
We discovered several barriers that limit people's access to herbal medicine: high costs, long distances to herb stores and lack of educational resources.
Because of this feedback, we've started to grow our resource library so people can learn more about using herbal medicine. We pay teachers for their time: in-person workshops help us learn and connect in real time, while virtual classes can live on as recorded webinars in our library. We also have a number of books and written documents.
