Classes, Workshops & Events
I have been studying herbalism, foraging my own wild food, and making my own medicine for a decade, and I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned with the community.
My goal is to help people learn about and connect with the plants and their ecosystems in a fun, relaxed, joyful way. I am committed to making sure my classes are safe, welcoming spaces.
I offer hands-on educational workshops, classes, and plant walks at local farms, environmental organizations, and venues in northern New Jersey, the lower Hudson Valley, and eastern Pennsylvania. Check out my schedule below!
If your organization would like to partner with me to host a walk or workshop, please contact me here.
From Seed to Plate: Growing Your Own Herbs
Few things in life are better than harvesting fresh herbs to elevate your meals. Growing your own oregano, parsley, thyme, and more from seed is not only rewarding—it’s empowering, fun, and economical!
You’ll learn exactly how to successfully start, grow, harvest, and care for some of the most beloved kitchen herbs. Plus, you’ll go home with a tray of freshly sown herbs to kick-start your garden!
Virtual Foraging Walk
Wondering what's popping up outside? Join me for a virtual plant walk! We'll learn how to identify, harvest, and work with some of the best edible and medicinal plants of early spring - chickweed, dandelion, nettle, and more. We'll also talk about how to get started with foraging and how to harvest plants ethically, sustainably, and safely.
Herbal Support for Stress and Anxiety, $45
As the stresses of daily life pile up and threaten to overtake us, our nervous systems can become stuck in fight-or-flight, leading to anxiety and overwhelm. As in so many things, the plants are here for us, helping to calm our minds, relax tense muscles, and ease us into restful sleep.
In this class, we’ll learn how to work with nervines; herbs that calm and nourish the nervous system. We’ll also discuss how we can develop daily rituals and practices that can help us cultivate a feeling of peace and well-being.
Herbs for a Healthy Cycle, $45
PMS, bloating, irregularity, painful cramping, mood swings and trouble sleeping…navigating our cycles can be challenging. Thankfully, the herbs are here to support us through every stage and every cycle.
Plants of the Wissahickon, Free
Join me for a hike along the banks of the beautiful Wissahickon as we learn about the edible and medicinal plants growing around us. We’ll learn how to identify them, how to work with them as food and medicine, and the role they play in our ecosystem.
Birds and Botanicals Hike
Do you think nature is super neat? Do you want to learn more about the flora and fauna in your area and hang out with other people who also like to geek out about that stuff? Join us!
On our hike you’ll learn to identify edible and medicinal plants, recognize birds by sight and song, and read the landscape to understand your local ecology.
