Now Booking for Hedgerow healing at the harmony Hub - 28th September 2021
New Herb classes
The harmony hub, Chorley, Lancashire.
Its great to be back doing face to face classes at the Harmony Hub in Chorley and a in place that's just opposite to Asley Park with its glorious Lime trees overlooking the hub and Dojo next door. The classes are held in the Dojo where there is plenty of space to relax and feel welcome. In this series of workshops, we focus on local herbs either those easily foraged or growing locally through the seasons or in spices that are sourced from local markets or grocers. The aim of these classes is to reconnect local people back to our herbal heritage, focusing on plant identification and getting to learn about them in an experiential way through guided tastings and discussions. there will always be a demonstration of medicines that can be made in home kitchens.
Hedgerow Healing
Tuesday 28th September 2021 7pm - 9pm
As the year turns to autumn the hedgerows are filled with bright red haws and Rosehips, purple-black Elderberries and lush blackberries. Our ancestors would have filled baskets to make medicines and foods to see them through the winter. This 2-hour class explores the healing uses of Hawthorn and Elder in some depth focusing on the flowers as well as the berries for their healing powers as well as food uses. In the class, we will have a guided tasting to help you to connect with the plants as well as a demonstration of how to make a delicious healing elixir for winter. The cost is £20 and includes extensive handouts with recipes. Numbers are limited so this needs to be pre-booked via Paypal. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the start of the class will not be refunded
