Work Trade Opportunity in the Herbalist Lifestyle Program

As many of you know, it’s been a challenging year for many, including our community here at HERBalachia. We are still recovering from the devastating floods that impacted so many lives. In response to numerous inquiries about scholarships and financial aid for the Herbalist Lifestyle Program, I’ve been reflecting on how to best support those who are passionate about herbalism but face financial barriers.

Support for Aspiring Herbalists

This year, I’m excited to offer a work trade opportunity for one person to attend the Herbalist Lifestyle Program. This chance allows you to gain access to the program by contributing your time and energy in exchange for tuition assistance. Given the timing, applications must be submitted quickly. I will review them promptly to ensure a smooth process.

If you're interested, please submit your application as soon as possible. I will reach out to schedule an interview, and the selected candidate will officially be awarded the work trade by March 31st.

Important Details to Consider

Please note that a non-refundable deposit of $650 will still be required to hold your spot in the program. This ensures both your commitment to the program and the work trade agreement.
