Plant Food Medicine Workshop
Are you into foraging or simply want to expand your plant knowledge? Then this awesome workshop is for you.
Sunday, 19th February, 10:00 am – 2:30 pm.
Go for a walk in lush surroundings at Riverside Community and soak up your tutor John Massey's wisdom on how to work and live more in tune with nature and with what some people may call 'common weeds'. Wild plants have much to give in terms of nutrients and healing power, yet their vast potential often goes unrecognised and underutilised. Stinging nettle, red clover and plantain are just three examples of largely ignored and - in the case of stinging nettle- frowned upon treasure troves.
All ages and experience levels are welcome.
$45 per person. Registration for this session is essential!
