The Herbal Remedy Kit has everything you need to get started using healing herbs... in a box.
Are you interested in crafting your own natural remedies at home?
Many of us have turned to herbal teas, extracts, or salves to soothe a cold or tend to minor first aid situations.
Imagine if you could create these powerful herbal solutions yourself!
Engaging in the art of herbal remedies is not just an ancient practice but a simple and deeply satisfying one that reconnects us with the natural world.
However, the journey to becoming a home herbalist can seem daunting.
Why is that? Some prefer to keep these skills enshrouded in mystery, perceived as complicated or out of reach. Additionally, we live in an era where there's an overload of information — sifting through it to find reliable, trustworthy resources can be overwhelming.
I remember when I first learned just how straightforward making home remedies could be: “Seriously? That’s all there is to it?” And I've found that many others react the same way when they discover the simplicity of herbalism.
Often, what you really need is to dive in — start with a hands-on approach and learn the details as you go. Whether you’re looking to take control of your health care or simply want to explore a more natural way of living, the path of the home herbalist is rewarding and accessible.
Let's embark on this green journey together. You’ll start out with everything you need to begin you’re journey as a home herbalist, in a box.
With the Herbal Remedy Kit, you will make...
Echinacea Tincture
Healing Herbal Salve
A Nourishing Herbal Infusion
Elderberry Syrup
Empowering. Be confident using herbs.
The Herbal Remedy Kit will help you learn how to take care of your family naturally, which is an empowering feeling.
When you have done something “hands-on,” you’ll never forget it. You’ll know how to apply the same techniques with other herbs.
Extracts (tinctures), salves, syrups and nourishing herbal infusions are foundational remedies for your repertoire. Once you have these down, it is much easier to learn other types of remedies.
Save tons of money from now on!
If you went to a store and purchased the same remedies you make in the Kit, those remedies would cost you more than the Kit itself.
Once you know how to make your own, you could make 10 ounces of tincture for the same price as 1 ounce would cost in the store.
You no longer have to pay $30 for a small bottle of elderberry syrup or even $10 for a small tin of salve.
Build your own herbal apothecary.
We learn about herbs one experience at a time. Herb to herb, remedy to remedy. You’ll start your own apothecary with your tincture and salve. From there, you can add on many other herbs and remedies that you make in other LearningHerbs lessons.
Once you complete the Herbal Remedy Kit, you’ll know what to do next. It’s the first step on the path.
Inspirational and a lot of fun!
If “Potions Class” at Hogwarts ever caught your imagination, then this is the place to start.
Once you get bitten by the “herbal bug,” there will be no stopping you. The possibilities and creative ideas are endless! LearningHerbs offers free monthly lessons.
The Herbal Remedy Kit includes...
Echinacea Tincture (4 Bottles)
A tincture is an extract of an herb in an alcohol base. “Extract” is the proper term, but we use the word “tincture” as that is what most people know it by. Echinacea, the herb, is an immune system stimulant for when you feel a cold coming on and is an excellent anti-bacterial for first-aid situations.
This lesson includes:
- Dried organic Echinacea root*
- 4 dropper bottles (bottle color depends on availability) Labels for your finished tinctures
- A labeled jar to brew your tincture in
- Muslin bag for straining
* We order high quality organic or wildcrafted herbs for the Kit.
Healing Herbal Salve (4 Tins, 2 Jars)
A salve like this is excellent for cuts, scrapes, bumps, bruises, itches, inflammations, diaper rash, chapped lips and more. It’s our FAVORITE recipe and it works great. Our family uses this recipe on everything!
This lesson includes:
- Organic comfrey
- Organic calendula
- Organic plantain (the 3 herbs are mixed in a packet)
- 4 metal salve tins
- 2 salve jars
- Lavender essential oil
- Beeswax
- Labels for your finished tins and jars
Nourishing Herbal Infusions
We’ll provide you with the herbs for your FIRST nettle infusion, which we hope will be the first of many for you. Nettle is one of the most nutritious herbs on the planet.
Learning to make herbal infusions is one of the most rewarding (and easy) ways to get started with herbs. Because you’re extracting the plant naturally, your body receives the nutrients the way nature intended you to digest them. Not in pill or synthetic form.
In the included videos, you’ll also learn about other herbs that you can use in addition to nettle to help to relieve stress and deliver important vitamins and nutrients to your body.
Elderberry Syrup
A syrup is an herbal preparation made by adding honey (or other sweetener) to an herbal decoction or infusion. The plant constituents are pulled out into the water when making the infusion or decoction. The honey then adds another healing component to the preparation as well as making it delicious.
In this lesson you will make a syrup using dried elderberries (Sambucus nigra). Elderberry syrup is especially helpful for those with colds or flu. The included elderberry will assist with the healing while the added cinnamon, ginger and cloves (from your kitchen) will help the syrup to be warming and the honey adds an antibiotic quality while also making the syrup soothing for sore throats and coughs.
Elderberry itself is also a proven cold and flu preventative.
What the Kit does NOT contain...
What the Kit does not contain is the cup of olive oil and standard cooking equipment (a pan and a few other common kitchen items) needed for the salve, and the 6 ounces of vodka needed for the tincture. The honey and a few basic kitchen spices for the elderberry syrup are also not included. Anything we do not include is easy to find in your kitchen or local market.
An Important Disclaimer
The purpose of the Kit is so you can learn to be self-sufficient in herbal remedy making. It’s so you can begin your herbal learning journey and begin to discover how herbs work. We want you to know that herbs are not “drugs” and we want to help you learn how to use them safely and responsibly. Always remember to consult your doctor before using herbs as any information you find online should not be a substitute for the advice provided by your physician or other medical professional.
We are with you every step of the way...
The Herbal Remedy Kit comes with beautiful online training videos, viewable on computers, tablets and smartphones. You can access the videos immediately after you purchase.
We also include step-by-step instructions that you can download and print, or view on your screen. We also tell you what supplies you need to gather in your kitchen before you begin.
Bonus videos go deep into understanding the remedies and how to create them without the Kit. Our goal is for you to build your home apothecary with herbs you grow, purchase or harvest.
To learn more about every herb used in the Kit, we include 6 detailed plant monographs. These beautiful downloads were written by herbalist Rosalee de la Forêt.
While you wait for your Kit to arrive in the mail, enjoy our bonus web class that reveals 10 herbs that can radically change your health!
We include a colorful card in the Kit box, so the lucky recipient of your gift can instantly access the videos, instructions and bonuses.

The slightest hint of our boo-boo's remain. I wish I had taken before and after photos as proof of how well it worked for us. THANK YOU for sharing this amazing recipe and product with us."
