Join us as we walk the woodlands and discover edible and medicinal spring plants. In this hands-on workshop we will meet native and invasive species, learn how to identify them and transform them into nourishing remedies. These are simple and effective ways you can begin working with plants in your backward and incorporate their nourishment into everyday life. Class will begin with a plant walk and learning sustainable harvesting techniques, followed by a remedies making workshop where we will make infused vinegars.
