Seasonal workshops
About our workshops
Come and meet others and learn how to use medicinal herbs and edible plants. These workshops might be at a location such as a botanical garden or they may be al fresco! Workshops we have run in the past have included making food with floral herbs or discussing Chinese medicine.
Our last seasonal workshop was our Herbal Spring Workshop in April. We taught our wonderful guests about emerging plants, what to look for and how to identify useful spring herbs. Join us and other like-minded people to feel the seasons as they pass and welcome and celebrate them.
You will need to book in advance to attend any one of our events.

Winter in the Garden
Emily's Herbal She Shed and the bottom of the garden It's been a mild start to winter this year, even in December there are buds on the trees, shoots growing and in Leicestershire we are waiting for the first frost, despite the early flurry of show we have had. I have been studying hard, attending full day (remote) clinics, writing countless essays for year two of my degree in Herbalism but there is still time to carve out for preparing Christmas candles, making huge batches of herbal aromatherapy oils, creating gift sets, picking and saving the best of my home-grown medicinal herbs
