YOUTH CLASSES:
Autumn Herb Walk: Deering Oaks Park
September 18 (Tuesday), 5:30 - 7:00pm, Coastal Pharmacy and Wellness, 29 Marginal Way (no cost)
As the light shifts, on the week of the Equinox, we’ll visit with the plants as their energy moves back into their roots in preparation for the seasonal changes ahead. We will visit with these extraordinary beings in their later stage of growth – observing seed strategies and marveling at how much the Earth has to offer. Our evening will be rich in herbal folklore, laughter, and understanding of how to incorporate our new plant friends into daily Life. Meet at Coastal Wellness at 29 Marginal Way and we’ll walk to Deering Oaks Park together. It will be a leisurely quarter mile (approximately) with stops along the way.
