Herbs for Birth & Postpartum with Fatima Chavez

Join us for a workshop to learn all about which herbs can be supportive during pregnancy & the postpartum period. Together we will sip tea, learn, ask questions, and connect with various herbs. Participants will make, and get to take home an herbal sitz or foot soak blend!
