Why take this course....
Begin your journey with herbalist Amelia Phillips to discover how you can easily identify and use wild plants from your horse’s pasture to create natural remedies for both horse and rider. Includes both formulas to create your own recipe PLUS print out cards from Amelia’s own recipes!
What You'll learn....
Pharmacy in Your Field will show you how to harness many of the wild, free plants in and around your pasture that you might once have thought of as useless weeds, and to give you a sense of how easy this can be, empowering you to be more active in the role of caring for your horse’s health and well-being.
You will not need special equipment – Amelia keeps her set-up as rustic as possible to demonstrate this. Nor will you need skills that require years of practice.
All plant properties and uses discussed in this course have been evaluated in clinical studies.

AMELIA PHILLIPS
Amelia is a qualified medical professional and self-researched herbalist specialising in natural & healing medicines for equines & humans.
Amelia shares “My own journey into herbalism began when I emigrated to Bulgaria, suddenly I had my own land to manage and nobody to confer with. The property is the last remaining house in an abandoned village, completely wild and never chemically treated. I didn’t know what most of the hundreds of plants, shrubs and trees were. I am 3 hours from the nearest horse vet and an hour from a hospital. I needed to get smart, fast. Knowing these plants and being able to utilise them, could make a huge difference to my life. “
