The Herbal Foundations Program at Green Path Herb School has to be one of the most engaging and technically proficient programs that I have taken. Having a background in Biochemistry, I was thoroughly impressed with Elaine and John's ability to teach not only how to safely extract the healing properties of medicinal plants but also why they are so effective in treatment. I would highly recommend this program to anyone starting their journey into understanding the healing power of plants.

A succus (succi is plural) in herbal terms is the juice extracted from a fresh plant. Herbalists have been using succi since the 18th century. They contain little to no alcohol, making them good for the skin and mucus membranes, and less drying to the system. This makes them wonderful alternatives for children, animals, and those who are alcohol-free. Succi are best made using high water-content herbs with water-soluble constituents.
