Herbs and herbal medicine, like many other aspects of culture, have travelled and become interwoven with the societies they influence and become embedded in. Tea and coffee, for example!
During this workshop Rowan will share her knowledge of the many therapeutic herbs and spices that we have been integrated into our lives here by many different routes. We will taste and smell teas and scents and discuss their rich qualities and meaning to us, especially evocative scents and familiar tastes.
About Rowan
