Herb Walk Classes: These are the new non-mosquito versions of the Herb Walks. No prerequisites. Everyone is welcome. Registration required.

Given the challenging mosquito situation this year, we will be offering an indoor/screened tent version of the Midsummer & Late Summer Herb Walks. Kathleen and her apprentices will provide leaves and flowers of wild, local, and/or medicinal plants that are in season now, and just like the herb walk, provide plant ID tips, medicinal uses, lore, and scientific info on them.

In addition, you are invited to bring a plant leaf/flower from your own yard or other local place and we will identify what you bring, if possible.

Late Summer Herb Walk Class: Thursday, August 14, 6:30-7:45 pm. $19.95
