Join us on this 8-week journey of empowerment and collective wellness. Open to all, this course embraces healing justice, harm reduction, and transformative justice principles while reclaiming and honoring ancestral rituals and plant wisdom from diverse traditions. Through hands-on herbal medicine making, guided herb hikes, meditative practices, and sacred rituals, we will deepen our connection to nature, collective wellness, and our ancestral root

This course also provides a discount when registering for any of the Tierra Rituals Spirit of the Plants Camping Retreat, Events and services.


This empowering space invites individuals of all herbal knowledge levels to come together, nurture their spirits, and envision a more just and liberated world as we journey towards self-discovery, ancestral healing, and personal and collective growth.

To deepen your understanding and support you in integrating this knowledge, we will provide weekly home-play assignments. In an effort to create an intimate experience, we've limited the group size to just 8 participants, fostering connections and building a supportive community as we navigate this transformative path together.
