Description:

One of our most popular classes last year!

Grandma needs huckleberries to bake a pie. You and your cousins embark on an adventure up the mountain to collect berries as well as herbs she uses. Will you harvest the right plants to help with the trouble you run into along the way? Will you make it back before nightfall?

The only way to win is by helping each other out. In this class we will learn about herbal first aid and how to use it on our adventure up the mountain in the board game Wildcraft! Each week we will learn about a different way to prepare herbs that are easily found around our homes and with ingredients most of us will have in our kitchens.

By the end of the session each child will have their own herbal first aid kit to take home! More information about the game: https://learningherbs.com/wildcraft/

This class is seasonal and relies on plants readliy available, so each session always has something a bit different!
