Wild Herbal Medicine Workshop Brighton with Jessie Martelhof

Join Jessie Martelhof at this relaxed and informative workshop in the peaceful and wild setting of Bevendean community garden and Bevendean nature reserve in Brighton.

May is the time of abundant blossoms and flowers, nature is brimming with activity. Scented blossoms fill the air. There are so many wonderful medicinal plants to discover and learn about at this time of year.

WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

You will first go on a wild medicine foraging walk and get introduced to a variety of seasonal wild medicinal plants. You will learn how to safely identify and harvest these plants and then get to pick some and make a simple herbal remedy to take home.

Jessie will share her extensive knowledge of native herbal medicinals with you and teach you about the myriad of medicinal properties contained within many of our common wild plants, the different ways to prepare them as well as some quirky history and folklore.

Come on your own or with a friend, Jessie always creates an inclusive atmosphere.
