Education

Clause 2a of the Constitution of the Herb Federation of New Zealand requires the Federation to promote the education of the public in the cultivation and use of Herbs.

Certificate course

The Herb Federation of New Zealand has developed a certificate programme: “Herbs and their uses”. The course consists of twelve modules, which are studied by distance learning.

Please note that this course is not e-based. The modules need to be printed out and posted once complete. Our programme is run by volunteers, including the course marker and we are working with their requirements.
