The Sacred Way Apprenticeship
Now accepting applications for 2025 season!
We offer an Herbalism and Forest Shamanism Apprenticeship program taught by Regina Compernolle and our team of Herbalists.
​
As an apprentice you'll study the work of internationally known herbalists and receive hands-on experience identifying local herbs and making medicine and learn to support your own health and the health of your family and pets naturally.
​
We have designed our programs to incorporate online learning and small group outdoor classes at our 40 acre property in Kansas City, KS.
