***CANCELLED DUE TO UNDER-ENROLLMENT- RESCHEDULING FOR 2025!***
Herbalism is an ancient art that connects us to our environment. In an age where digital information often replaces hands-on learning, this workshop series provides foundational skills in harvesting and preserving plants for home use.
Embark on this journey with us and rediscover the timeless connection between humans and plants.
Kristy Baird of Verity Herbs and Wellness will lead an enriching five-week series. This hands-on journey is designed for those curious about herbalism and eager to integrate natural options into their daily lives. Participants will gain knowledge of common herbs, their uses, and methods for creating herbal remedies. By the end of the series, you'll have a collection of homemade herbal products and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.
