ABOUT

MEDICINAL PLANT WORKSHOP

Saturday the 10th Feb 9am-2pm

Join us for a half day hands on workshop on medicinal plants, how to identify them, what they cure/alleviate and how to prepare them.

WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR:

Adults with background or no background in medicinal plants and children are welcome to join their parents as they are valuable companions with their acute intuition. All people who are curious about how fynbos and other plants around them can bring longevity, cure, alleviate ailments or medical conditions suffered by themselves or those around them. Whether it be cancer or a pounding headache from tick bite fever, nature all-ways has an antidote for you!!

WHAT TO EXPECT:

A herb walk in the indigenous medicinal and edible plant garden, this is an opportunity to learn how to identify the plants. Meeting and connecting with the plants will help to awake your intuition. Each course brings new information about how to identify the plants, depending on the season . You may meet them seeding, sprouting, budding or flowering. Learn about the medicinal properties of chosen plants, how to prepare them in the form of tinctures, creams/gel, infusions (teas) and/or poultices. Prepare tinctures, oils and creams and take home with you for your own experiments and use.

Enjoy a meal and refreshments created by Veld and Sea’s inspiring forager and chef, Roushanna Gray.
