Medicinal Plants Workshop
Reconnecting with Plants as our Allies-in-Healing

Join us for an experiential workshop designed to introduce you to the world of plants and their medicine.
Constance will share the lore of the Wise Woman Tradition, focusing of a few plants that can be found in your garden, back yard and the nearby environment, and cultivating a relationship with the plants in order to benefit from their healing properties. Participants will learn ethical and proper plant harvesting techniques, prepare and go home with a healing salve as well as a medicinal tincture (alcohol-free) using natural, organic materials such as apple-cider vinegar, olive oil and bees wax. |

"All ancient and indigenous peoples said that they learned the uses of plants as medicines from the plants themselves... They insisted that the plants can speak to human beings if only human beings will listen and respond to them in a certain state of mind."
