Around the world, for thousands of years before Echinacea was used ad nauseum, many easily available herbs, foods and lifestyle habits encouraged people to stay robust and strong throughout the winter months. This class will cover many of the easily available folk remedies, foods and herbs to keep you healthy throughout winter.

We will meet at 6:00 PM at Minnehaha Parkway and Cedar Avenue, on the corner of the Super America and we'll walk across the street to the more overt greenery. There is easy parking a block away on 18th Avenue.

This class will address the many things that can be gleaned from the myriad of studies, often from other countries, that both support and introduce new ideas about how our common weeds may be used in life and practice.
