Growing Herbs: From Seed to Tea with Lacey Walker

Growing herbs from seed to tea is a rewarding and educational journey for anyone interested in herbalism and gardening. In this workshop, we will delve into the fundamentals of starting herbs from seed. As we sip on tea from last year's harvest, you'll have the opportunity to begin planning your herb garden with guidance from Fox Haven's Farmer, Lacey Walker.
