Proud to be organizing these free, bilingual wellness workshops with Farmacopia and La Luz Center. Yesterday we gathered to make herbal medicine for sweet sleep from California Poppy, a gentle sedative plant which is in full bloom in many Sonoma County gardens and open spaces.

Excited for next month when we gather in the garden to make medicine for digestive health from artichoke leaf, orange peel, dandelion root and more.
