Herbalist Opportunity:  The Philo School of Herbal Energetics needs an herbalist land partner as soon as possible!  The school is located on 16.4 acres of enchanted land.  About 13 acres are mixed redwood forest and the rest is great farmland and housing (2 dwellings in addition to mine, each including established and wonderful gardens).  The school is small but successful, offering classes and apprenticeships.  The land is Registered Organic, the school is AHG certified.  My dream is for a younger herbalist who would like to take over the school and my gardens (over 200 species of medicinal plants) in 5 years.  This new partner herbalist would also love redwoods and wish to steward and save them.  Financially easier since you pay for only half the cost.  The land will go on the open market in March of 2011 if no one is found and the school, gardens, and safety of the redwoods lost.  Pictures at www.herbalenergetics.com; call 707-895-3007 to speak with Mary Pat Palmer and/or email at mpatpalm@earthlink.net.
