My time at the Chestnut School was the catalyst for believing I could make my living by working with plant medicine. Beyond the knowledge and confidence gained through the program itself, Juliet provided encouragement and mentorship regarding how to build an herbal business and helped me form my vision for what my future herbal-based career could look like. I am always referring to this knowledge to help me design formulas for clients, grow herbs in my garden to supply my apothecary, and provide inspiration when I need to recharge in nature.”

"Going to the Chestnut School has been one of the best decisions of my life. It very much shaped my path and is something I'm grateful for every day. I use my herbal knowledge in every possible way for my business! From plant identification to knowing what part to harvest, to knowing what the plant should look, feel, smell and taste like, to tuning into the plants message, to grounding my own energy…and feeling Chestnut's encouragement and support to get out there and offer my gifts (and the plants’) to the world!"
