 The beauty of herbalism lies in its connection to the earth, and students will not only gain practical skills in working with plants but also develop a deeper respect for nature. From learning how to properly care for a garden to mastering the process of medicine-making, they will see how herbalism is rooted in sustainable practices and traditions passed down through generations. This course will teach them how to make wellness part of their daily lives, using simple ingredients from the garden, kitchen, supermarket, and nature.

 Whether your child is curious about nature, loves crafting, or is interested in learning more about how plants can support health, this series is a wonderful way to engage their curiosity and creativity. Together, we will cultivate a lifelong love for Nature, plants, self-care, and the joy of making remedies with our own hands!

 This class is designed for boys & girls ranging  5 to 11 years old. Must be courteous and mindful working with others. Please pack a snack & water bottle for comfort and wear layered clothing for indoor and outdoor activities.
