Woodland herbs

A walk in wild woodland reveals not only herbs in the undergrowth but also herbal trees. This day will equip you not only to find first aid by the wayside, but also to gather ingredients for pleasant, health-giving teas. Along the way you will also identify powerful herbs now grown as flowers and important medicinal herbs being researched and recently used for example in cancer treatments. Medicinal and cookery recipes will be part of the day. Herbs covered will include Hawthorn, Elder, Yew, Ajuga, Sanicle, Hedge Woundwort, Wild raspberry and Strawberry, Violets, Ivy, Herb Robert, Bilberry, Butcher’s broom, Cowslips, Lily of the Valley and Solomon’s Seal. Medicinal and cookery recipes will be part of the day.
