Plant Walk Dates

 

Throughout the warmer months, let's get to know the medicinal and edible plants that grow all around us! On a plant walk, you can expect to learn plant identification, plant names (common and botanical latin), as well as some of the ways in which the plant can be worked with and sustainable harvesting practices. Plant walks are interactive as we will walk around local areas (parks, properties, etc.) and observe, touch, and taste the plants as we go. Each and every plant walk will be different- depending on location, time of year, and which plants we come across!

Through the Darkness: Practices & Herbal Allies for the Winter -

Tuesday, December 12th - 6:00pm-7:30pm

at The Greensted, Zumbrota

Of the seasons, winter tends to be the most difficult for so many.

This class is an invite to discover the medicine winter has to offer as well as ways we can nourish and support our bodies, minds, and hearts through this season utilizing various practices and herbal allies.
