Medicinal Plants Workshop

Please join Jen-Osha Buysse and Hannah Spencer with the non-profit Aurora Lightsfor an introductory workshop on medicinal herbs. We will focus on three herbs that are easy to use and identify. We will practice different methods for using herbs in the field as well as harvesting and storage for later use. We will also review the components of a basic herbal first aid kit. Each participant will bring home supplies for a poultice. A portion of the proceeds from the class will go to support Aurora Lights’ Herbal Medic chapter, which provides workshops and free herbal health clinics. For more information on Aurora Lights, visit auroralights.org. $20 for WVBG members, $30 for non-members.
