Herbal First Aid Retreat

This weekend retreat will be a deep dive into herbal medicines that can be called upon in times of acute illness or accident. Whether that’s an addition to your first aid kit for in the field support or a medicine that you build a daily practice with, this retreat will start to introduce you to clinical strength folk preparations that you can learn to depend on.

We will prepare a tincture, a hydrosol, and a salve for you to take home. Together we’ll go over the process from harvest to medicine together…
