Support Equity in Herbal Education

We are fundraising to cover the cost of scholarships for Black, Indigenous and other racialized students for SEED, SOIL + SPIRIT Herbal Medicine School

This is a 6-month, 60 hour course that is intended for Queer, Trans, and racialized folks as well as their Allies. It will take place in Tkaronto (Toronto - In the City Where Trees Stand On Water) from May to October of 2020.

Our goal is to uplift and centre the history, living stories and relationships of plant medicine from Indigenous, Diasporic, and decolonial perspectives.

We created this program with the goal or providing a space when students could build relationships with Plants and honour ancestral knowledge. This space is essential because racialized people are rarely given the opportunity to learn about  Plant medicine in a way that feels safe, let alone healing.   However, many of our communities have been systemically impoverished for generations, and so scholarships are necessary in order to make this happen.

We are asking for 4,000$ to cover: 
2 - 1,000$ scholarships
4 - 500$ scholarships

This will allow students who would not otherwise be able to participate to join and connect to their ancestral knowledge. All additional funds will go towards covering the materials, booking space and paying for video production costs.
