Some little kales!

The first nettles are coming up, which are one of Christy's favorite spring herbs to wildcraft and incorporate into springtime recipes. I also like to dry nettles and store them for later use in herbal teas. Saturday, April 25th: Spring Wildcrafting Walk. 3 pm
*
We'll talk about the Ethics of Wildcrafting, learn about the properties of Spring Herbs, identify and harvest nettles, cleavers, dandelion, burdock, and more. Learn about the nourishing and cleansing properties of these common herbs!

Please wear long pants, boots, long sleeves, and bring gloves. Supervised children welcome.
