Online Herbal Alchemy Workshop – Building resilience for 2027
Saturday 30th January 2027
Location: Online, 9.30am-4pm
Start the new year by discovering the world of medicinal herbs and learning how to build your own home apothecary.
Join me for a day of Herbal Alchemy, exploring the medicinal plants that can be found in our gardens, kitchen cupboards and local surroundings, discovering how these everyday herbs can become valuable allies in supporting our health and wellbeing. We’ll explore the herbs traditionally used to support the body’s natural resilience, looking at how we can work with plants to support ourselves through the changing seasons.
There’ll be lots of practical advice including ways to work with some of the herbs and spices you might already have growing in your gardens or in your kitchen cupboards.
This is a big part of my work, sharing the knowledge that I’ve learnt over the last nine years – re-connecting people with the plants around them and showing how much we can do to support our own health and wellbeing.
I really believe that understanding the plants and knowing how to use them is empowering.
This is a practical, sensory and informative day, combining herbal knowledge, traditional uses, tea tastings and hands-on remedy making.
During the workshop we’ll:
- Explore how everyday kitchen and garden herbs can be used medicinally.
Learn about herbs traditionally used to support immunity, digestion, emotional wellbeing and everyday ailments. - Enjoy guided herbal tea tastings, exploring the flavours, aromas and properties of different plants.
- Make simple herbal remedies that you can recreate at home.
- Explore ways to build resilience and incorporate common herbs into everyday life.
Whether you’re completely new to herbal medicine or already have a little collection of herbs and remedies at home, this workshop will give you the knowledge and confidence to start working with plants in a more meaningful way.
