Continue with us on your herbal journey and deepen your experience with the plants growing in Central Texas.
Ginger Webb was inspired to offer Advanced Wild Texas Herbalism by her graduating students who want to continue studying the wild native and naturalized medicinal plants growing around us here in Central Texas. This course is available to anyone who has completed Foundations of Herbalism with SJS and includes six new outdoor days, online Herbal Ally explorations, and a re-immersion in the online Intro to Herbalism class.
This course consists of three parts:
- Wild Outdoor Explorations: Six Saturdays spent in a small group with Ginger Webb, exploring and going more deeply into the botany and medicinal applications of our beloved wild plants. We will explore old and new favorite locations, discuss best preparations and practical uses, and when possible harvest for further personal experimentations. (~10 AM - 1PM, 6 Saturdays October - April). Ginger loves teaching in these smaller groups, and this is a rare opportunity to get to explore the wild landscapes more intently with her. Three of these Saturdays meet with our small apprentice group.
- Herbal Allies Series: Ginger Webb will focus on a different Texas medicinal plant each evening in a live Zoom class, going more deeply than before with practical applications, historical references as well as those from other practicing herbalists all over the country, and a downloadable monograph for each plant. Meeting twice a month September - May on Thursday evenings.
- Intro to Herbalism: RE-IMMERSION! As a returning student, re-enrollment in the weekly Zoom class allows you the time and space to refresh and experience the lessons more deeply (75 hours with SJS Intro to Herbalism students of 2026-2027. Discounted Herbal Goodie Box available if supplies last.)

TAUGHT BY: Ginger Webb
Ginger Webb has been deeply immersed in the study of herbs in central Texas for 30+ years and has supported hundreds of people to reconnect with the plant world as medicine. Since 2012, Sacred Journey School of Herbalism has offered in-depth herbalist programs to interested folks and new herbalists.
The school reflects Ginger’s love of the plant world; her experience studying with herbalist Michael Moore; her years of medicine-making experience; her assertion that herbalism is the people’s medicine; and her belief we all have access to the healing wisdom of the plant world simply because we are alive and share consciousness with all life.
