Herbs at the Farm
Deepen your connection to the earth by following the plants as they progress through each season. Gather herbs such as yarrow, plantain, violet, and burdock from our cultivated herbal gardens, as well as from the wild.
We’ll walk, talk, harvest, and transform these herbs into practical, helpful products such as infusions, plant infused oils, salves, scrubs, creams, tinctures, infused honey, and herbal vinegars. Each product is based on capturing the essence of what the plant has to offer during that season.
Designed for the sprouting, as well as the established herbalist. Adults and teenagers welcome. Taught by certified-Herbalist Margo Mullein.
