Early Spring Medicinal Plant Walk

The plants are emerging from their winter dormancy! It's a good time to get to know our local medicinal herbs at their earliest stages of growth, so that you can identify these helpful herbs all season long. We'll take a slow stroll through the CVU meadows and wooded edges, meeting common and helpful plants and diving into their uses and the best times to harvest for medicine. 

Get ready to use all your senses, and leave with a better sense of the green world around you.

Bring waterproof walking shoes and notetaking materials! Sign up for both of Sophie's spring plant walks to further deepen your knowledge of medicinal plant ID and use.

This class will meet inside CVU to start and then move outside. Please dress appropriately for the weather, as the class will take place outside CVU and may involve walking over some muddy and uneven ground. In the case of extreme weather, this class will meet a week from the scheduled date.
