SUMMARY:Eating early spring herbs with Shana Lewis
DESCRIPTION:Explore the Culinary and Medicinal uses of Nettles and Lem
 on Balm with Shana Lewis\nAges: 12 and up (or by arrangement)\n$10/pe

 iewform?c=0&w=1\nSpring is just popping up her head this time of year,
  and I will introduce everyone in this class to her early arrivals: Ne
 ttles and Lemon Balm. You will learn about their medicinal properties 
 and their highly edible uses in food. You will participate in identify
 ing, collecting, and preparing these herbs. You will experience hands-
 on how to add herbs to spice condiments, salads, and tea, and will be 
 able bring home some of the herbal products we will make. We will also
  venture outside and explore the surrounding garden and woods to ident
 ify and ethically harvest these herbs in their natural habitat, and to
  learn to get past that first 'sting' in picking Nettles. Students are
  asked to please bring a pint jar to bring home their tea in, and a pa
 ir of garden or dish gloves to pick nettles. Instructor will provide e
 xtra supplies.\nLearning about the nutritive and edible properties of 
 the plants growing around us, I feel, in our gardens, or even in our b
 ackyards or next to the sidewalk, is highly empowering. Whether it's a
 dding wild greens to soup, or preventing a cough or cold with plants, 
 this knowledge is important for humans to feel confident, safe, indepe
 ndent, and resilient in their bio-region.\nTeacher Bio : The plants ha
 ve been teaching their wisdom to me for over 20 years. I studied local
  plant identification in my Fairhaven College degree, and have taught 
 various workshops on women's health and herbs over the last two decade
 s. I have co-instructed on plants at two wildlife reserves in Whatcom 
 and Skagit counties, and have also been an organizing volunteer for nu
 merous Northwest Herbal Faires. I love to create magical balms from th
 e herbs in my vibrant garden.\n\nFor more information visit https://tr
