We have been teaching courses, doing herb walks & talks since 2010. Please get in contact if you would like us to come and talk to your group or organisation.
We have also run many workshops and given talks to local community groups and have worked with charities such as Unseen (working with women victims of human trafficking), women's wellbeing and mental health groups at the Wellspring Healthy Living Centre, as well as our ongoing work as founding members of Herbalists Without Borders Bristol . We've made appearances as guest speakers for the West of England Herb Group and the Medicinal Mushroom Conference, and have tutored on the Shift Bristol practical sustainability course and the advanced diploma course for the School of Herbal Medicine .
Our NEXT WORKSHOP is on March 16th 2024:
Spring Herbs, Foraging and Fermentation
Join us for a day of foraging & fermentation with local experienced herbalists Annwen Jones & Becs Griffiths, and forager Martin Bailey. During the day you will learn how different foods and herbs can support your digestion, which is the foundation to health & wellbeing. If you keep getting viruses, have bad allergies or food intolerances or other digestive symptoms then understanding more about digestion and the microbiome is where you need to start.
We will begin the morning with a walk in Eastville Park learning about the spring herbal medicines and foods growing all around us. The focus will be on medicinal plants that support digestion and nourish our microbiome.
We will then head to CoExist in Easton for a seasonal delicious lunch including plenty of exciting fermented dishes to sample. It will be vegan and include gluten free options.
In the afternoon we will make medicines. Annwen and Becs will take you through making herbal bitters and a herbal fermented drink. Martin has years of experience making wonderful wild foraged ferments so will lead you in making a delicious ferment for you to take home. The afternoon session will also give us a chance to discuss the topics of the day in more detail, and for us to answer any questions you might have.
You will go away with a herbal digestive bitter tonic, your own fermented food, and a herbal fermented drink.
You will learn:
The fundamentals of digestion and how herbs can help
The importance of the microbiome for your immunity, mood and digestion
Herbal Tincture making (alcohol & water extract)
Basic fermentation skills and recipes for wild foraged foods
Date: Saturday March 16th 10-4 pm. More details on the day will be sent once you have booked.
Cost: £100, £90 and £80 sliding scale depending on income & resources
Lunch included
