Learn about the magical willow and the herbal lore associated with this
wonderful plant.
WANT TO MAKE SOME HOME REMEDIES TO ENHANCE YOUR
FAMILY’S HEALTH AND WELLBEING?
Fiona and Fabiola will be conducting another Glenorchy Herbs and
Healing workshop at the Supper room this Spring on the 20th
September - the weekend before the Flower Show.
We will start with a walk to the willows on the GY Lagoon path and cut
some willow wands to use in making herbal medicine. We will make
willow bark tinctures and teas and you will learn about the amazing
anti-inflammatory benefits of this herb and how it is closely related to
aspirin (but without many of the side effects).
We will also talk about Willow’s other benefits including how it can be
used to make a natural rooting hormone (great for gardeners) and even
for water divining!
We will finish the workshop with a shared lunch featuring herbal
goodies. Be in early to avoid disappointment - numbers are limited.
Looking forward to seeing you!
