Herbal Medicine Day

Herbal Medicine Day September 28 from 10 to 4. $65

Lunch is potluck and herbs are the theme!

This is a day of learning about medicinal plants! If you are interested in using herbal medicine in your own home, growing herbs, making herbal remedies, and using plants to increase your wellness and vitality, this day is for you.

We start the day with a meet and greet where we will meet one another and the medicinal herbs. We get to taste test all the teas and all supplies including a manual will be provided. We will break for a potluck lunch and then take a walk in the garden to meet plants growing around us.

In the second half of the day we will learn the basics of medicine making and using herbs for different ailments. We will cover medicinal teas, oils, tinctures, and decoctions. Class is from 10am to 4pm and is lead by Community Herbalist and Wellness Education Kristen Prosen. You can learn more about Kristen at kristenprosen.com. This class costs $65 for the day and includes all herbs, materials, samples, and course manual.

Evergreen Lavender

Welcome

Evergreen Lavender Farm is a family owned business located in the rural community of Evergreen in Appomattox County, Virginia. In 2009, the farm began to transition from cut flower production to field grown lavender. The lavender harvested is used for our handmade sachets, eye pillows, lotions, and soaps.   Lavender is not our only horticultural component, for there are several flower gardens to wander through .  Our season begins in May and ends in mid-July, for most of the year we are only open by appointment or for special events.  The farm will be offering scheduled workshops for successful planting of lavender,  creating a lavender wreath, and making your own lotion, so "like" us on Facebook to know when they are or check back to our website's calendar.  The farm is a wonderful outdoor venue to celebrate your special occasion, but remember, we are a farm, not a country club! We have many plans and are hopeful that visitors will discover Evergreen Lavender Farm as a relaxing, beautiful, and educational experience.
