Hello Permies!! Ever wanted to learn more about plant medicine? Next weekend, I'll be hosting a live video class to harvest and wildcraft all the bbs necessary to achieve the Natural Medicine Badge from Permies.com's own SKIP program. Superstar plants we get to work with will include:
Arnica,
Aloe Vera,
Burdock,
Cayenne,
Calendula,
Chamomile,
Comfrey,
Cottonwood buds,
Dandelion,
Gumweed,
Ginger,
Fennel,
Horseradish,
Lavender,
Lemon balm,
Mullein,
Nettles,
Plantain,
Peppermint,
Rose,
Thyme,
St. Johns Wort,
and Yarrow!
We will be making several items to stock your medicine cabinet.
The class will begin on Friday, August 9th. We will learn to identify and dry plants we need for the next day, Saturday the 10th of August, where we will craft lots of goodies from our plants in my She Shed. It will be follow-along cooking style. The classes will be recorded also, so if you miss something, you can go back to check your notes later. Or if you're busy during class, you can catch up from the recordings. I'm a fun teacher, and this will be some valuable skill-creation you won't want to miss!!
Cost is $25 to attend online. I'll accept vemno, checks, pay pal, or possible other creative options :) Please purple moosage me to be added to the class list.

That looks like fun. Rebekah knows her herbs, folks. You can see it in her many badge bits like Make a Rose Blossom Salve


Make a Chamomile Flower Infusion


Dry Raspberry Leaf for a Tea, Decoction or Infusion

The class was a success! I had a few gals participate in person, a couple live online, and several who paid for the recording :D
We made all of the required preps for the badge as well as extras, with tons of recipe ideas for more.
I have uploaded the class intro, 17 plant monographs, and am working on editing the class. They're up on a private list on YouTube. If anyone here is interested, I'll still sell it for $15, the original price. I plan to polish up the rest of the film to sell as a Intro To Herbal Medicine class soon.
Thanks for asking, Jeremy! :D
