Create your own calming herbal tea blend to nourish and support the Nervous System.
Summer is a season of growth, abundance, and long, sun-filled days, but it can also leave us feeling depleted, overstimulated, and in need of restoration. In this hands-on class, we'll explore gentle Summer herbs that nourish the Nervous System, ease stress, and help restore balance through the simple ritual of herbal tea.
Together, we'll work with a variety of nourishing, aromatic herbs, discovering their unique flavors, energetics, and therapeutic actions, while learning the fundamentals of crafting balanced, intentional tea blends. You'll create your own custom tea blend to take home, along with a deeper understanding of how herbal teas can become a simple, daily ritual for supporting calm, resilience, and overall well-being.
CLASSES WILL INCLUDE A BLEND OF PLANT WALKS, TEA MEDITATIONS, MEDICINE MAKING, HARVESTING, AND PLANT IDENTIFICATION. As well as introduce you to basic plant energetics. THIS EXPERIENCE OFFERS IMMERSIVE, HANDS-ON LEARNING GROUNDED IN THE RHYTHMS OF THE NATURAL WORLD.
THESE CLASSES ARE OPEN TO PARTICIPANTS OF ALL SKILL LEVELS WHO ARE WILLING TO LEARN, GET THEIR HANDS IN THE SOIL, AND IMMERSE THEMSELVES IN THE PRACTICE OF HERBAL MEDICINE.
DATE:
Thursday, August 6th 5:30pm-8pm
LOCATION:
Calgo Gardens, 462 Adelphia-Farmingdale Rd., Howell NJ 07728
*ALL MATERIALS WILL BE PROVIDED.
A LIVING CURRICULUM
EACH SEASON WE’LL EXPLORE A SELECTION OF PLANTS THAT ARE FLOURISHING IN THE GARDEN AT THAT TIME. THE EXACT PLANT LIST WILL REMAIN FLEXIBLE, GUIDED BY THE HEALTH AND VITALITY OF THE GROWING SEASON. THIS ENSURES OUR LEARNING IS RESPONSIVE, ROOTED, AND ALIVE.
OPEN GARDEN DAYS
Every student who takes a class with me this Summer or Fall will be invited to attend Open Garden Days.
These optional gatherings are an opportunity to get your hands in the soil, tend the plants, and participate in ongoing garden projects. Herbalism is not only about making medicine, it's also about cultivating a relationship with the Earth that sustains us.
Whether you come to help, learn, observe, or simply spend time in the garden, these days are a chance to deepen your connection with the plants, the seasons, and one another.
Please note that all classes will take place outdoors in the garden, light rain or shine. In the event of a storm, we will move class inside.
YOUNG ADULTS AGES 13 AND OLDER ARE ALSO WELCOME TO REGISTER WHEN ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT, IF THEY HAVE AN INTEREST IN THIS PRACTICE. 🌿
