Winter Plant Walk-Tree Medicine 3/22/25
Join Westford herbalist Amber Kennedy on a woodland plant walk in the beautiful forests of Westford, Vermont. This private property is home to the Boheme Botanika apothecaries and gardens and a burgeoning botanical sanctuary that supports many thriving plant ecosystems.
During this walk we will be exploring tree medicine. Learn all about trees that are commonly used for medicine making and food. Some of the trees we will discuss are Witch Hazel, Birch, Apple, Hawthorn, Horse Chestnut, several species of evergreens, Sugar Maple and more along with some of the fungi (Chaga, Reishi, Turkey Tail and Birch Polypore Mushrooms) and lichens (Usnea) that depend on the trees to grow. Discover their latin names, how to properly ID them and some ecological facts about them. Discover some of the historical uses for these trees, fungi and lichens as well as their benefit to modern day herbalists. Delve into some interesting tree lore and magic too! And we will also get to sample some ice cold, freshly tapped Maple sap at the end of class!
