Join clinical herbalist Abby Rappoport in BARN's culinary garden to learn about medicinal herbs. You'll be introduced to a variety of herbs that can easily be grown in your garden (or found fresh at the grocery store), as well as some you might call "weeds" that already are growing all around you.  

We'll begin in the garden seeing, touching, smelling, tasting, and learning about the herbs thriving there, and then head into the kitchen to learn how to use and prepare fresh herbs for medicinal tea, as well how to store them for future use.

You'll taste many different herbs, make your own blend of tasty and nourishing herbal tea, and take some herbs home to play with in your own kitchen. You'll leave with knowledge of how to identify and use medicinal plants, and how and when to use them effectively.
