Botany and the Body is a seasonal workshop series exploring how plants and trees support physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being through hands-on learning and herbal preparations.In this second session, we’ll explore local plants and trees used for first aid, including poultices, salves, infused oils, and rapid hydrators. Participants will walk the BEEC loop to identify these plants in their natural environment, then return to the BEEC farmhouse to make a handcrafted healing salve, choosing between Saint John’s Wort or plantain.
Featured plants may include Saint John’s Wort, yarrow, plantain, mullein, spruce, balsam or pine pitch, licorice, nettles, peppermint, sumac, jewelweed, oregano, rosemary, elderberries, chaga, bee balm, comfrey, aloe vera, thyme, elecampane, dock, slippery elm, clove, white willow, ginger, cayenne, burdock, and dandelion.
Each participant will also receive a complimentary botanical face serum or body scrub from Ursa Major!
