Traditional, plant wisdom was passed on within the family- through observation, learning by doing and allowing the plants to guide the way. This plant medicine circle is designed to offer that type of traditional way of knowing the plants. No curriculum, no set training yet allowing the plants to reveal themselves to us.

Weekly session 2-3 hours together exploring the plant medicines of the PNW. In person exploration, meeting wild and cultivated plants in the field, using our senses to touch, smell and taste the food and medicine along the way.

Who will benefit from this type of offering?:

This is offered for those who are curious about the use of medicine plants and are drawn to the idea of using all their senses to know them.

A typical day will include identifying one or two medicine or food plants and getting to know where they live, who lives with them, what plants and animals co-exist with them and how we can use the plant to sustain optimum nourishment or healing.

We may or may not eat the plants we meet or prepare them in to tea or other remedies in the field.

What will this experience provide for me as a herbalist/human?

You will know how to find and identify food and medicine plants safely and ethically to share this nourishment and healing with yourself, your family and your community. You will hear others and create your own story.
