A deeply immersive wildcrafting apprenticeship rooted in Earth’s cycles.
Join us at The Kinlands to cultivate seasonal holistic wellness rooted in blue-zone wisdom and to develop a deep connection to nature through the art of growing herbs and crafting botanical remedies while honoring the earth’s cycles.
Throughout this immersive 8 weeks together spread out from May to August, we’ll dive into Spring + Summer seasonal wellness, syncing to the cycles of nature, cultivating a kitchen & apothecary garden, wild plant foraging, plus crafting a handful of botanical remedies and nourishing culinary recipes to cultivate connection and new slow living skills through the growing season.
This seasonal course will give you a foundational understanding of gardening, folk herbalism and blue-zone inspired seasonal living. Ask any graduated student - it’s the perfect experience to initiate the transformation of a holistic lifestyle rooted in nature’s rhythms. More than that, it’s an enchanting experience full of valuable information and intimate community connection.
