Student Testimonials
"This past year's foraging classes at the Delta Institute have had a transformational effect on the way I view and use plants. Arthur's depth of knowledge extends from taxonomy to ethnobotany, herbalism to plant use in primitive applications, and beyond. He is an instructor with a gift for sharing knowledge in a way that engages students; supplying, sometimes advanced, information in a manner that is effortless to assimilate. Perhaps the best feature of a class with Arthur is that he speaks from personal experience of the topic at hand on top of a solid scientific grounding. The weekend workshop creates an environment that fosters a deep integration of the material presented through several different modes of learning. I am truly grateful for the opportunity that these sessions offer and highly recommend the experience to anyone interested in cohesive, in depth information about plants in an increasingly fragmented, specialized world. A workshop or class with Arthur provides a well-articulated and uniquely holistic perspective on the role of plants in our lives, and our role in theirs."
