About the workshop: "Our farm landscapes and backyards are not only capable of producing nourishing food for our families and communities, but also host powerful plant-based medicines from cultivated herbs and flowers, weeds (including nuisance invasives), cover crops, meadows, and forested areas. Join Spoonful Herbals co-directors and community herbalists for a panel discussion with farmers and land stewardship coordinators from the Intervale Center, the Intervale Community Farm, Rock Point-Diocese Vermont, and Shelburne Farms on the often untapped opportunity of weaving together land stewardship goals and community herbalism. Learn about and taste particular plants and value-added products! Add value to your land stewardship efforts by tapping into your "living apothecary" and sharing medicinal plants through community herbalism and mutual aid networks."
