*** THIS EVENT IS LIKELY TO SELL OUT FAST ***
Following a very popular spring event, Sip into Summer returns to The Exchange, this time turning our attention to the plants of the summer season.
Summer brings a different kind of medicine. The long days and warmth concentrate the volatile oils, bitter compounds and resins that give herbs their potency, and many of these plants are growing in our gardens and green spaces right now, waiting to be noticed.
In this hands-on workshop, Medical Herbalist Jola Kaczmarek will guide you through the garden at The Exchange to discover summer herbs in their natural setting, how to identify them, talk you through their medicinal properties and typical indications for your health.
We'll then gather together to experience the art of organoleptics, tasting and exploring a freshly prepared herbal infusion through your senses, one of the oldest and most intuitive ways of understanding plant medicine.
You'll leave with a medicinal infusion to take home to share with your friends and family, as well a little more confidence with the plants around you.
All equipment and plant material provided. No experience needed, just curiosity.
