The plants of spring allow us to “lighten-up” from the comfort foods of winter. Let’s connect with nature and what she’s offering us at this time of the year\, while engaging in the traditional practice of wildcrafting greens for the purpose of nourishing our bodies in and out. In this course we will discuss the Celtic festival of Beltain as well as the essence & traits of spring. Reflecting how these show up in our personal lives. We’ll harvest and then take our bounty into the classroom for making preparations in harmony with what our bodies are yearning for. In this make and take experience\, you can expect to go home with two herbal preparations based on what is alive\, at peak\, and available for harvest. While it’s impossible to predict “who” will be available for us to work with\, what I can share is that in past spring classes we’ve made: Wild Plant Pesto\, Violet flower butter\, Plant infused Oil for topical use\, Salad Dressings. Please inform us ahead of time if you have any allergies.

It was a daily exchange of life between human and the natural world. In this introductory series\, we will explore the natural world and discover ways to more fully engage with her as she moves through each of the four seasons. In each class we will: create an outdoor (temporary) medicine wheel in order to deepen our understanding of the cyclical nature of all life: plants\, people\, animal/insect. We will also engage with/forage the plants which are available to us as we seasonally and learn how to transform what they have to offer into something we can use\, aka beneficial preparations. This class will be balanced with time outdoors for Wild Tending and indoors for hands-on practice of preparation techniques and extraction methods. Each class stands on it’s own. Together they create a synergy of seasonal attunement aligning your wild nature with the natural world around you.
