Medicine of the Trees Class

As snow melts, sap begins to rise. With the sap comes the medicine of trees. Join Angela Campbell, earth and energy medicine practitioner and professional gardener, for a day all about tree medicine. Angela will take you through the basics of tree botany, leaving you with an understanding of why early spring is the best time to collect bark medicine. We’ll stroll through the woods connecting with the medicine of trees, harvest some bark and make some tincture together. You’ll learn all about the medicinal properties of trees growing in our area.

What to Bring: Students should bring a small pocket or utility knife, notebook and pen for notes, warm clothes for the outdoor portion of the class. Additionally, there is a $7 materials fee paid directly to the instructor. Also bring any snacks you’ll need, and a water bottle.
