Following the success of this great course, we have invited Sarah back for another one!!!
11th June 2015.
You wouldn’t believe the healing properties of so many of our native wild plants. This course will show you how to identify and use over 30 of the plants in our woods and hedgerows. We are lucky to have Sarah Hughes Medical Herbalist teaching along with our very own Rose. The day is held in our private wood and involves short walks and talks, demonstrations and some hands on experience making herbal remedies. Together we will be making herbal ointment and a hair tonic for you to take home, poultices for you to try and detox drinks and teas for you to taste. There will be hot drinks supplied and a light lunch of Wild greens soup and herb bread. Places are limited to 12
Sarah Hughes lectures part-time at Newcastle University on the MSc in Medicinal Plants and Functional Foods and is a truly inspirational teacher. She will show us plants that are pain killers, plants that heal wounds, even a plant that cures a nose bleed!
That’s in the morning, then after lunch we look at the benefits that can be gained by using wild plants in your daily life from natural sleep remedies to immunity boosters and a hair strengthener.
