RBGE Diploma in Herbology

RBGE roots were embedded in the ancient practices of herbal medicine when it was founded as a Physic Garden in the late 17th Century. Now, over three hundred years later, our Diploma in Herbology rekindles that holistic tradition.

Herbology is an innovative programme of study that draws together several connected branches of botanical science to clearly demonstrate the remarkable therapeutic potential of plants and the practical applications of this knowledge.

The course aims are to:

  • Explore and explain the world of herbs
  • Encourage the study of medicinal plants
  • Share understanding of the earth’s herbal lore
  • Enrich awareness of and involvement with the natural world
  • Nurture the creative use of healing botanicals
