Special events

Saturday 15 July, 12 – 2pm: Introduction to medicinal plants & kitchen remedies

An introductory talk about how we can work with plants to support our everyday health.  We will look at the potential healing properties of commonly found plants – which most gardeners will be disposing of as ‘weeds’! and get to know some of the medicinal plants growing at the Meadow Orchard.  Learn how to make simple preparations and how to use these plants and preparations in the right dosages as natural medicines. Cost £10 per person. With Siobhan O’Leary (local Medical Herbalist).
