Earth Medicine Collective: Herb Garden Fundraiser
Help us raise funds for regenerating our herb garden, set in the beautiful grounds of Bowden House Community. These gardens are a wonderful resource for the wider community through the workshops and courses that are offered here.
Come and join medical herbalists, Annie Gardner and Peter Neumann for a day of herb related workshops and Tales from the Story-garden with Laura Salmon, our resident storyteller.
There will be the opportunity to enjoy lunch and other refreshments from our pop-up cafe and browse our small shop (a percentage of sales towards the herb garden).

Plant Journey to Yarrow with Peter Neumann
Traditional plant healers met with the plants they used, and let those herbs be their guide. Similarly Peter will guide you in a technique he learnt from the late Eliot Cowan to meet the being of Yarrow, spending time in the "Living Room of the Plant" - outside, with colours and paper if desired - and then returning indoors to participate in a drum journey to meet the spirit of the plant. [Peter reserves the right to change the chosen plant but most likely it will be yarrow, abundant at this time of year].
Peter practices from Totnes Natural Health Centre and his herb course can be found on www.plymouthherbalist.com/herbal-wisdom-course/
Herbal Energetics with Annie Gardner
An experiential workshop exploring the diverse energetic qualities and actions of plants, how the different tastes and energetics relate to the elements and how they interact with our individual constitutions, physiology, mind and emotions.
This is an introductory workshop which aims to give you a felt sense of the different qualities and actions inherent in plants through specific examples. You will get to taste, touch, smell and sense these different qualities and also see how their appearance can give us clues about their actions and indications.
Annie practices from Dreaming Earth Apothecary (Bowden House, Totnes), offering herbal medicine, bodywork and workshops locally.
