Did you know there is a use for that "weed" in your yard? In this class, Faith will lead you on an expedition exploring our homestead pasture. During this experience you will:
- Indentify plants
- Discuss historical and modern day uses for that plant
- Learn safe foraging practices
- Create a salve from a local plant known to be a herbal first aid hero that you can take home
Faith has been foraging for many years and has had the opportunity to share her knowledge with several visiting parents who expressed wanting to dive deeper into foraging with her. Faith is a homeschooling mom and a RN by trade- so her attention to detail, natural curiousity for how plants work and ability to share her knowledge effectively with others are a perfect culmination to allow us to learn from her. We are so glad she has joined our team and look forward to her guiding our community garden expansion and these experiences on our homestead. Foraging With Faith Experiences will be different depending on the time of year, so there is always something new to learn! At the end of the session there will be time for question and answer. Foraging walks are designed for ages 12+ but all are welcome.
More about the Salve: Plantain salve is considered a herbal first aid hero to soothe a range of minor skin complaints such as cuts and scrapes, insect bites and stings, slivers/splinters, and hot, dry or irritated skin.
In the event of rain cancellation you will receive the option of either a full refund or moving your ticket to a rescheduled date.
Join us as we explore the homestead, harvest and learn! Sorry, farm animals are not included in this visit. However, you are welcome to also purchase an Open Play ticket (for additional $13.50) and join in after the class.
