“Why Apothecary Guarantees Your Success in Making Herbal Remedies...”
Learning about herbal medicine doesn’t have to be complicated.
When I got started years ago I didn’t know where to start. And it was frustrating. I tried a few books — but something was missing.
All I wanted was someone to show me the basics so I could get started the right way… Like an “Easy Button.” I was a busy dad and had no time or money to waste on hours and hours of study.
Today there’s too much conflicting free information online, it’s overwhelming! Online courses, certifications, hundreds of books, social media… Who has time for that?
And worse yet — it’s hard to know who you can trust.
After helping tens of thousands of budding home herbalists over the last 20 years, I created the perfect place to begin.

Success Stories from Apothecary...
“Literally changed my life”
Apothecary along with the book Alchemy of Herbs has literally changed my life. It inspired confidence in my ability to safely add herbs to my life. It has helped me understand the difference and how to make a wide range of herbal media ranging from salve, teas, oxymels, syrups, tinctures, and a lot more. I have since applied those techniques to make herbal remedies other than those in the series.

Even the “herbally experienced” can benefit
I’m fairly experienced with making herbal remedies, so I was a little skeptical about purchasing Apothecary. Surprise, surprise, my old skills were reinforced, and I learned a bunch of new things, too! Best of all, I have an amazing video library that I can refer to again and again. The PERFECT complement to the book Alchemy Of Herbs.

“I feel like I'm in a friend's kitchen”
You can find out about herbs in books and online, but what I like about Apothecary is that the information is given in an informal and easily digested way. When I watch the videos, I feel like I'm in a friend's kitchen sharing an herbal experience. Their presentation allows learning new ideas in a relaxed and yet fully knowledgeable way. Thank you!

“Passion, honesty, and comfort”
Over the years I have collected many herb books, gone to seminars, and viewed so many videos. Some are good and some just want your money. What I love about John and Rosalee and I am sure many more that make Apothecary happen is the passion, honesty, and comfort in coming into your home to share and teach. I feel they both really care about giving this amazing information to us so we can stand in this world informed, healthy, and ready to share this healing work through herbs that will make a difference in lives. Thank you so for your giving, knowledge, and time!

A lot of learning for the money
I really appreciate the amount of teaching that you share that doesn’t cost a great amount of money. You have shared many recipes that I have been able to use and a lot of teaching on the many different herbs for medicinal use that I have applied. I am on a very low income, but I have been ably to purchase a couple of your learning bundles that aren’t out of reach for me to buy. You have been a blessing to me! Thanks.
