Hosted at Franciscan Earth Literacy Center, this in-person, seven month class series invites participants to deepen their connection with plants and learn practical ways to support health at home. Following the flow of the seasons, the program moves from sowing medicinal seeds to assembling a well supplied home apothecary of handmade remedies. Summer sessions focus on garden care and building a personal materia medica, including plant identification and exploration of each herb’s actions, chemistry, and energetics. In autumn the emphasis turns to harvesting and processing at peak potency, with guidance on washing, drying, garbling, and proper storage so materials remain effective. As the year winds down, the class shifts to medicine making, offering hands-on practice creating tinctures, salves, infused oils, and syrups for wintertime support. The series welcomes growers with any amount of space, from a full garden to a few sunny containers. Enrollment is capped at 20 to keep the experience personal and practical. The full season option is $250 and includes seven classes, while single class drop-ins are $40 as space allows. Scholarships are available for those committing to the complete series, and anyone interested can contact Lily for details.
