There are many workshop topics available that are not listed! Send a request for a workshop subject and I'll design one especially for you and your group.

These workshops are always so much fun for all, very informative and hands-on. The participants will take home what they make themselves in many of the workshops. I present my workshops light heartedly, based on decades of field experience and teaching a partnership of both scientific and spiritual plant studies. My favorite workshops involve actually being in the garden and wild spaces!

Many garden clubs have met at members' homes for the workshops so that we may experience true garden pleasure.

Fees: Typically my fee for a 3 hour workshop is $375 and $625 for a 5 hour workshop with a small materials fee ($5-$8 per student) for some classes. A 50% nonrefundable deposit is due at booking.

Wild Plant Walks

Group setting or private sessions. Typically, on a plant walk, I will guide you around your property and introduce you to the plants living there. You'll be amazed to discover all the bounty in your own yard! I also lead walks in wilderness areas and city parks. Learn healing benefits, harvesting methods, applications for the plant and ethnobotany.

I offer Plant Walks in a public setting. Check the schedule on the Calendar page to see if there's one happening soon.

Fees for Plant Walks vary, depending on the setting, location and amount time you wish for the walk to entail. Send me an email and we can discuss the details. A 50% nonrefundable deposit is due at booking.
