A summary

Join us on a slow-paced walk around the site, learning about the history, folklore and traditional uses of so many wild medicines growing all around us. It's a great chance to share what you've learned along the way too; there's so many stories attached to these plants. Towards the end of our walk, we'll use what we've collected to make infusions, bringing intention to our choices of the plants we're using to create. All materials provided.

Healing Weeds

After working in Forest Schools and Bushcraft Camps for a few years, alongside my years in other educational settings, I became interested in the healing properties of the plants we walk past every day. I was blown away by their potency so want to share with anyone else keen to learn about this forgotten knowledge.
