In the Wheel of the Year, our ancestors celebrated the arrival of fall with Mabon on the autumn equinox in September and Samhain in October (that has led to modern day Halloween). Learn about these fall celebrations – the traditions, festivals, symbols, and their traditional plants. We will look closer at some herbs of autumn and their myth, magic and folklore, and how we can use them today for our own health and wellness. The first part of the workshop will be a presentation and in the second part of the workshop we will make a few herbal remedies to assist us in the darkening, cooling days of fall as we look inward and prepare for winter. Each person will make their own dream pillow with dried herbs for restful sleep, dreaming, and relaxation. You will also make your own signature essential oil scent perfume stick which can be used for relaxation, focus, mood enhancement, and to reduce feelings of stress. Then we will make an Easy Rest Tea to take home to also enhance relaxation and feeling good (and it tastes so good too)!Join Janis Fallon a Renssealer County Master Gardener, herbalist, and mostly retired environmental attorney and engineer. Her lifelong passion for working with plants has included several 10 month intensive herbal apprenticeships with Rosemary Gladstar, continuing plant and herbal education, and decades of growing and making fun herbal projects. Come celebrate the fall and changing seasons in a fun afternoon of magic and herbs!
This class is $25 per person.
