Herbal First Aid Series: Building Your Botanical First Aid Kit

Build Your Botanical First-Aid Kit!

From hiking trails and backyard gardens to everyday moments at home, small mishaps are simply part of life. In this two-part workshop series, you will learn how herbs can be used to support the body when common issues arise such as cuts, scrapes, burns, bug bites, digestive discomfort, and minor stress or tension.

Together we will explore herbs traditionally used in herbal first aid and everyday care, including plants known for supporting skin repair, calming inflammation, soothing bites and irritation, and offering gentle internal support when the body needs it most.

Throughout the series, you will learn how to build and use a small, practical herbal first aid kit to keep at home or take along on outdoor adventures, and when it may be helpful to reach for plant remedies.

During this series you will:

🌿 Learn about herbs commonly used in herbal first aid

🌿 Create practical herbal remedies for both external and internal support

🌿 Gain confidence using herbs for bites, irritation, digestive upset, and other discomforts

🌿 Take home your own travel-friendly herbal first aid kit

Participants will make and take home several herbal preparations, which may include items such as a healing salve, bite relief balm, insect repellent, digestive support, tension-relief roller oil and more.

This workshop is ideal for anyone interested in practical herbal skills, gardeners and outdoor enthusiasts, or those who simply want to feel more prepared using natural remedies at home.

All materials are provided. None or some prior herbal experience is welcome.
