Nature’s Pharmacy – Exploring Medicinal Plants of Spring
People have used plants as medicine for all of human history.
In these seasonal sessions, join Medical Herbalist Emily Boese (BNatMed, MNZAMH) on a guided tour of the Herb Garden to learn about the medicinal plants that grow all around us in Tāmaki Makaurau.
In this workshop, we will focus on 5 different plants which are ready to be harvested and used in the spring. You will learn:
· How to correctly identify the plants (no more second guessing!)
· How to grow and correctly harvest
· What each plant is used for
· Which part of each plant to use
· How to use the plants – whether it is taken internally or used topically
· Important safety info
· How to harvest and use medicinal plants sustainably
Emily will start this class at Huakaikawa visitor centre.
