How to formulate teas and tinctures
Blending tea is not as easy as you think! Join Amy Boldt, MS, clinical herbalist and herb farmer, as we explore the intricacies and considerations when making two of the most common ways to extract plant medicine- in teas and tinctures. You'll learn the benefits and differences of each type, as well as when and how to use them effectively. We'll also discuss the art of formulation, how to prepare, and how to source your herbs. If you want to incorporate plant medicine as part of managing your health, you won't want to miss this class on effective extraction and tasty teas.

Upcoming Plant Walks
Join me at the Barefoot Medicine Farm™ for Spring/ Summer plant and foraging walks!
​
​​
Together we'll explore the 10 acre Barefoot Medicine Farm™ which is listed as a botanical sanctuary through United Plant Savers. We have old growth conservation forest, wetlands, and meadows which are home to a diverse amount of plants, many of which are native at-risk or endangered medicinals.
​
You'll learn how to ID plants, which are food, which are medicine (some are both!), and how to prepare them. You will also have the chance to taste some of the foraged teas straight off the farm!
​
Each class will focus on a particular theme, so mark your calendars and get ready for some foraging fun!
