I’m so thrilled to be leading a plant walk at this year’s Western Mass Herbal Symposium! Class description below
We are surrounded by medicine if we just know where to look. Many common plants, often maligned and overlooked as unwanted weeds, are potent medicinals. When we get to know the abundant herbs around us we're practicing sustainable herbalism at it's finest, as often these are some of the most widely distributed plants in the world! In this walk we'll meet numerous abundant medicinal and edible plants that tend to fall into the category of "weeds" and learn identification, harvesting methods, medicinal actions and ways to capture their medicine in both herbal preparations and food as medicine.
