Join herbalist jim mcdonald on this walk, where we'll be wandering around Tenhave Woods to explore the medicinal virtues, identification, folklore and preparation of many of the region's common trees and bushes before they leaf out. The information presented will be both specific and practical, based on jim's 25+ years experience in gathering, preparing, and using herbal remedies, and provide a basis for participants to incorporate what they have learned into usable skills with which to maintain and restore health. Please note that walks are offered walks rain, snow or shine; please have clothes to keep you warm & dry if there's any chance of snow, sleet or rain.
