🌿 Weedy Wednesday: Plantain (Plantago spp.)
🗓 August 13th | 4:00 PM
📍 MEGAN & CO. Apothecary, Downtown Spirit Lake
Join us for our August edition of Weedy Wednesday as we explore the abundant and humble Plantain — a resilient green often found underfoot, yet packed with powerful healing properties.
We'll work with fresh plantain harvested locally, diving into its uses as a topical poultice, a soothing tea, and a tincture. You'll learn the difference in actions between fresh, dried, and tinctured plantain, and get hands-on with the plant’s vibrant, mucilaginous energy.
Expect:
✨ A mini materia medica lesson
🌿 Herbal lore and folklore
🧪 Discussion on plant constituents and preparations
🧤 Live demonstration with fresh leaves
Whether you're new to herbalism or looking to deepen your knowledge, this community class offers an opportunity to connect with the plants and one another.
