Class Description:
Herbalism as Remembering: Ancestral Ways for Modern Lives
Your people worked with plants. Every lineage did, in kitchens, in fields, at the bedsides of the sick and the birthing. The knowing may feel far away, and it still lives in your hands, your cravings, and the stories that were carried to you. Together, from our separate homes, we will trace the thread back through the old ways of tea, food, and tending, and weave them into a life with phones, deadlines, and traffic. We will also talk about how to honor the lineages we learn from. Come curious about your own roots and leave with a first step toward home
Teacher Bio:
Ashley McDonell is a clinical herbalist and Director of Education at Casa Curativa, with over a decade of experience dedicated to restoring relationship-based herbalism as a foundation of community health.
