About the instructor: Hi I’m Alexandra, founder for Vulgaris Herbs and Mindful Wilderness. I began my herbalism journey 10 years ago, inspired by my grandmother and the wise women in my Romanian heritage. For the last 8 years I have been teaching workshops on herbal medicine, nature connection and wilderness skills. I work with herbs in ways that encourage us to:

• Engage with the synergies of the whole plant and its constituents
• Make gentle, nourishing remedies that uniquely support each individual
• Create a purposeful and responsible relationship with plants that fosters curiosity, kindness and simplicity
• Build confidence and competence for the at-home herbalist; empowering each student to bring herbalism into their home through hands-on experience
• Keep herbalism accessible to everyone
