When life moves fast, we tend to stay inside our heads. A herb walk isn’t a lecture or a tour where you just absorb information - it’s a chance to drop into your senses, connect directly with the land, and absorb knowledge about the plants you meet along the way through anecdotes and stories.
Embodied sensing: Even in winter, the woods and the meadow offer immediate grounding. We’ll spend time leaning into the trunk of a tree, looking up through the canopy to the winter sky, and feeling the quiet steady sway of the branches above. It’s an immediate, physical reminder of stability and perspective.
Tracking the Seasons: Learn to observe the subtle shifts in the landscape - understanding how plants rest, where the energy goes in winter, and how to identify native herbs even when they are more dormant.
Crafting your tea: moving from the trees to the tea tables, we’ll taste herbs grown right here on the farm. Rather than following a set recipe, you’ll learn a few ground rules and then blend a brew based on your intention, which herbs work well together, aroma, flavour and how it makes you feel.
