Woodland Herb Walk
About this Workshop
About this Workshop
Beneath the canopy of the tall Pacific Northwest conifers, we will meander through a forested area, learning about the many uses of these spectacular trees as well as the beautiful, little plants beneath them that call this type of forest home. From medicine to building to domestic and food use, this unique ecosystem has provided sustenance and shelter to humans for many centuries. Come and absorb the forest energy and learn its hidden secrets.
Remember to bring a pen, paper, and weather appropriate attire for the session.
