The Medicinal Gardener Workshop Series

We are delighted to introduce our new workshops, which will be taking place in our Clinic in North East Lincolnshire. Sally believes that it is of real benefit to know how your garden herbs can benefit you and taking part in one of her carefully planned workshops will provide you with all the essential information you need to enable you to ensure you get these benefits from your own garden. We will be covering how to make tinctures, ointments, creams and soaps and basic herbal medicine for different problems.
Each workshop includes a handout detailing what was covered in the workshop. We also provide a homemade vegetarian lunch either soup and herb scones or salad using home-grown organic vegetables.
If you have a group of 4-6 people please just give me a ring and we can tailor a workshop to your needs at a date that is convenient to you.
We can make these extra special for birthdays or hen days by adding in two course lunch and homemade celebration cake for an extra £8 per person.
