connection with the Earth. With the basic principles planted in

As you know, the common cold, cough/congestion and flu-like symptoms can really take their toll on us. We can help get relief from these common illnesses by using medicinal plants. Plant medicine has been passed down for generations to help give us relief and only in the last couple of decades it stopped being passed down and then simply forgotten. In this class you will learn what plants to grow so you too can make very effective plant medicine which helps give you relief from common illnesses.
