you can use something like:
>>> modelinstance._meta.get_field('myfield').help_text
where modelinstance is an instance of your model and myfield is the name
of the field you want to inspect.
is that what you're looking for? newforms form_for_model also brings
the model's help_text options in:
>>> import django.newforms as forms
>>> ModelFormClass = forms.models.form_for_model(Model)
>>> ModelFormClass.base_fields['myfield'].help_text
