Here are what some former students have said:
Rainbow's amazing Herbal course was what I had been waiting for my whole life. It was also the launching pad for my own herbal business. Her knowledge of herbs is endless and the way that she teaches is so inviting and captivating. She includes all angles of herbs including Herbology, Botany, Ethnobotany, etc.(there are so many!) which makes her course so complete. I whole heartedly encourage anyone interested in herbs to enroll.

"Apprenticing with Rainbow opened the doorway to the plant world for me. Where I once saw a mess of green stuff, now lives communities and families of plant beings who have unique energies, personalities, gifts and messages. I learned how to be in integrity with how to harvest, listen to, communicate with and respect plant medicines. Ramadevi's heart and soul and personal kindness all made the learning so accessible. I worked with her over ten years ago, and still use the knowledge gained from her now in my bodywork and energy work practices. It was a true gift of connection to the Earth in a way that is deeply important and nourishing.
Just the process of learning this work alone is a medicine unto itself!" ~ Jen Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #104161
"BEST apprenticeship EVER!! I did it a couple years ago and after the first weekend cried my very first tears of joy.
I have nothing but fantastic things to say about Rainbow and the program.
If you're considering it, I say DO IT"♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ~Kayla
