Grow and use medicinal herbs at home. Learn easy plants, care tips, and simple remedies for your own backyard apothecary.
About this Event

There is something deeply grounding about stepping into the garden and gathering what you need—whether for the kitchen, a soothing cup of tea, or simple, everyday care. In this class, we’ll explore how to cultivate a small apothecary just outside your door, filled with herbs that support both body and home.

Join us for an introduction to growing and using medicinal plants with ease and intention. We’ll cover a thoughtful selection of herbs that thrive in the Pacific Northwest, along with practical tips for planting, tending, and harvesting. You’ll also learn simple, approachable ways to incorporate these plants into your daily routine—from culinary uses to gentle remedies for sleep, digestion, and basic first aid.

Featured herbs will include favorites such as calendula, holy basil (tulsi), violet, lemon balm, yarrow, chamomile, and rosemary—plants chosen for both their beauty and their versatility in the garden.

More than just a how-to, this class invites you to build a relationship with the plants you grow—an experience that is, in itself, a kind of medicine. Whether you have a sprawling garden or a few pots on the porch, you’ll leave inspired to begin your own medicinal herb garden this spring.
