About this Event
Vanessa is an experienced practising herbalist working in clinics and online and leads seasonal walks, herbal talks and herbal medicine events. On the day we will prepare our tea, drink, share and learn about the mystery of plants and herbs through our sense of smell, taste and where it affects our bodies.
We will learn:
-Good identification, drying and storage practice for harvested plants.
-How to grow our plants for medicine.
-What effects and medicine the mystery herb gives us.
When you signed up, we’ll ask you to type in your address. This is so that we can send you on the post a herb to be used during the workshop.
(The herb Vanessa will send out is classed as food medicine and has no known contraindications or side effects. It is a safe traditional indigenous plant).
