Basic Botany Course
Break through the overwhelm of confusing Botany books and field guides and learn how to recognize the most common plant families.

A decade ago, I was right where you are now. I knew a few plants, but wanted to know more. I tried to study using the traditional methods, but with four kids and a new baby, I didn’t have time to dig into the complicated Botany books, and using field guides felt overwhelming and confusing.
Teaching Botany in the classroom motivated me to figure out how to simplify basic Botany and plant recognition for my students. In the Basic Botany Course, you’ll learn not only Botany basics, but the four most common plant families found in North American gardens, and across the world!
In just one hour, you can be outside recognizing plants. You won’t be able to step outside without seeing a flower that you know. You’ll know the plants so well, that you’ll be able to teach your kids.

Rachel Parks is a certified elementary school teacher and homeschooling mom. One summer day after finishing her first year of teaching Botany, she went on a walk with her little four-year-old daughter. On their walk, her little girl began to point out flowers. She was able to point out and name the flowers in 13 different flower families just from listening to what her older sister had been learning during the previous school year. With such success, Rachel immediately began to incorporate the methodologies that she had used to teach her own children plant recognition into her in-person Botany classes. Now you can learn it too!
