Neponset River Solstice Medicinal Plant Walk

Join herbalist and birth worker Emma O’Brien for a physically distant (digital!) live plant walk.

Tips for identification, getting to know, ethical growing/harvesting, processing and consuming will be shared. Take screen shots and find herbal friends in the sidewalks of your own neighborhoods.

Class will be offered at a $5-50 sliding scale, with proceeds going to Building Up People Not Prisons, an organization that seeks to significantly decarcerate women in the Commonwealth.
