Knowing how you can support yourself and your loved ones naturally can make such a difference.In this workshop we will learn about a number of plant allies – from wild medicines to amazing garden herbs and kitchen cupboard spices! You will learn how to use them effectively when it comes to treating a variety of winter infections. You will also get a better understanding of which foods nutritionally support your recovery, and which foods hinder it!
