American Herbalists Guild
Tierra is one of the founders of the American Herbalists Guild, established in 1989 as the representation of professional herbalists regardless of tradition. This organization certifies professional members, establishes standards for herbal education and sponsors educational conferences. The standards are planetary in nature, so that herbalists trained in a variety of traditions, from Native American medicine practitioners, who trained as apprentices, to graduates of Chinese Medicine schools or Naturopathic colleges, can be considered as members.
