Join local Colorado herbalist Mari Marques-Worden, The ThymeKeeper, as she teaches us how to harness the healing of Spring through this cycle’s power of rebirth, by understanding the return of upward energy in a leaf’s new growth. We invite you to take a walk on the wild side and jump into folk medicine in action as we explore the health benefits of plants.

Learn how to: • Gather & forage herbs respectfully! • Make a multivitamin even kids will take! • Kick start your bodies own natural detoxification methods with a spring tonic! • Treat wounds & stop bleeding on contact with common weeds! • Remedy respiratory ailments such as seasonal colds or asthma like conditions!
