Herbal Compass CSA: Navigating Healing Throughout the Calendar Wheel
This 8-month series engages our sensory system in the medicinal attributes of various plants according to the cycles & themes of the Herbal Compass. Each session will focus on whatever plant is most abundant in the garden at that time and how each plant relates to the elemental themes of that particular time of year. We will discuss their therapeutic gifts for the human body and that of the land body. Each month you will learn one different herbal preparation whether it’s a tincture, salve, oxymel, vinegar or infused oil, how best to use this herbal preparation & other seasonal wellness tips. We are thrilled to be able to host these session in-person & outdoors within the herbal sanctuary. Being outside with the plants is a big part of getting to know their therapeutic benefits which are greatly informed by the comforts & challenges of/to their particular environment. How can the plants we choose to cultivate, harvest & prepare as food & medicine help us through each season’s challenges?; whether it’s allergies, heatstroke, hypertension, immune health, adrenal fatigue, liver toxicity, anxiety, depression, skin aliments & so much more. Wild medicinal herbs have the ability to fully enliven our senses as we hone our internal and external compass.
