September 28th, 2025 — Castle in the Clouds, Moultonboro, NH Session I - 1:00-2:30 Session II - 4:00 - 5:30
Workshop / Facilitator: Mj Pettengill
Learn the difference between lunar and solar-infused teas. Unlock the secrets of wild herbs, medicine, and culinary accents used by wise healers from centuries ago—traditional indigenous healing practices and local folk remedies. Go underground and tap into ancient roots.
Wrapped within the stability of the fertile fields and woods around us, wildcrafting is a pathway to self-care. As the plants ripen and flowers boast their fragrant blossoms, awaken to the possibilities that lead to re-wilding: awareness and self-maturation merging today’s energies with the ancient past. Reclaim a place in it.
We discuss activities in the field—preparation, drying, storing, crushing, when to use fresh or dry, and how to accomplish this.
Know tools, guides, and apps for identification. Familiarity with plants is imperative to avoid dangerous look-a-likes. We will learn about endangered, threatened, or sensitive plants. Join us and sample wildcrafted tea, and learn about the powerful plants in our wild world.
