Herbal Remedies for Health & Home ~ Spring/Summer

Have you ever wondered if there was something behind all those traditional remedies - borage for courage, peppermint tea for an upset stomach? Are you keen to explore natural alternatives to treating common ailments? Would you like to learn practical ways to use what you have growing in your herb garden?

Join Meghan Rhodes, qualified herbal medicine practitioner and founder of Rhodes Roots & Remedies, on a six week journey as she guides you through a selection of herbs and remedies, as well as how to work with them.

Each week, we will:

• Learn new herbs, understand their uses, and how they’re referenced in herbal literature
• Make a different type of remedy together, which you’ll be able to take home, so you will feel confident making them yourself
• Provide a booklet with the profiles of the herbs we’re covering in that session, the recipe for the remedy we make in class, complimentary recipes you can easily make on your own, and room for notes.

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

• Make six types of herbal remedies
• Be familiar with 18 herbs and their uses
• Use reference books on herbal medicine to research remedies to other ailments on your own
• Have the confidence to continue exploring natural remedies.

In the spring/summer series, we’ll be exploring seasonal herbs under the following themes: Cleanse, Emerge, Breathe, Digest, Calm & Relieve.
