Thanks for passing this information on C.  They look rather good some of those courses and not too expensive.

Ooh, I might do a couple of these. It's really close to where I live.

If anyone else is thinking of doing some, let me know. We could have coffee

That sounds brilliant. Wish I could go as I love herbal stuff. 

Oh yes, lovely, I wish I could go (have the book!). Long way though unless my husband is working over that way and can kick me out on his way to work then pick me up again...will pressurise him today.

They look to be good value.

Oh Corrie, I have just found out from the husband/transport that I would not be able to get to the October herbal medicine weekend - will you be doing any in the spring that I could look forward to?

They sound very reasonable.

Nicola, I don't take the courses, just passing on some info 
Julie & Mathew Seal run them, they have written a few herby books too.

Thanks Corrie, I got onto the website and contacted them.  :buttrf:

I wish I lived close enough to go, there are a couple of the courses I would have loved to have done 

Hi All,

Just for interest I have started running herbal courses with PF, my last one was July 30th...the next date will be in
September, date to be arranged...they are fun filled, informative days where you learn about the benefits of herbs and make lots of products.

PM me if you are interested   :buttrf:

Whereabouts are you Avril, and is there a link?

Hi Lilli,

PF website is  www.plushfolly.co.uk  It is based in Hampton. 

However, I am also freelance as I have been teaching herbal students at various educational establishments for lthe last few years and want to branch out.

 :buttrf:

A long way from me then. I'd LOVE to do a herbal course
