10:00am – 12:00pm | $20Herbs have been around since the beginning of time and were our first food and medicine. Attempts have been made to ban their use and create fear about their effectiveness, but they have withstood the test of time and are now becoming a popular alternative to pharmaceuticals. Learn the folklore and history of some herbs, their uses and how they can be incorporated into your life every day. Make a sleep pillow to take home. Herb plants will be available for purchase. Instructor Denise Koroslev has studied, grown and used herbs for the last 35 years and is a distributor for Natures Sunshine herbs. She is treasurer of the Northern California Unit of The Herb Society of America and has been involved with the restoration of Rodgers Ranch Heritage Center for 19 years.
