Celebrate Earth Day with Plant Walk

Past event
Apr 22, 2014

*Wild Winoosk*i; I am offering a 2-hour Wild Edible and Medicinal Plant workshop in Winooski on EARTH DAY - Tuesday, April 22nd from 5:45 - 7:45. Join us for an adventure along the Winooski River, beginning and ending at Purple Shutter Herbs, 7 West Canal Street, Winooski, VT.

My focus will be common "weeds" that are also delicious and nutritious foods and healing plant medicines. We will discuss proper plant identification and safety, sustainable harvesting methods, and plant uses and preparation methods. You may also choose to sample some of the wild greens as we venture along the river path. Please bring a water bottle to wash samples you may want to taste as we go.

/This workshop is a benefit for Laura Brown, the proprietor of Purple Shutter Herbs, to assist in her recovery from cancer.

/Workshop fee; $15. - $30. sliding scale.

To register, please call Purple Shutter Herbs at 865-4372, or email Melanie at mel@burlingtontelecom.net

Thanks,
