Growing Sustainable Medicine

Growing your own herbs and making medicinal herb gardens. Ensure you have top quality fresh herbs to use for herbal teas and remedies by growing your own.

This is a practical two day course covering sourcing good quality seeds and herb plants, how to cultivate, nurture and propagate them, when to harvest and how to dry them, a discussion of design and the principles making a herb garden.

Courses are held at my eco home in rural Herefordshire and run throughout the year. We will be sowing seeds, taking cuttings, dividing roots, mulching, composting, making foliar feeds, harvesting and drying them according to the season. Bring a plan of your garden to discuss possibilities of design and planting plans.
