Description

During this easy and fun Urban(ish) Herb Walk walk we will:

  • Solve many little mysteries of who has been growing in your yard and garden beds!
  • Meet common wild plants (native, naturalized, and invasive) that both pop up in disturbed areas and flourish in less touched places.
  • Learn identification tips, and culinary & medicinal uses of the plants we visit with such as yellow dock, self heal, willow, dandelion (of course!), and even mugwort.
  • Toast the season together with a celebratory pot of tea crafted with plants we’ll meet!

Upcoming Friday Herb Walk:

  • 10/6/2023, 4-6pm: Eureka Greenspace Herb Walk at Cooper Gulch

Questions? Contact allison@dandelionherb.com | 707-407-5617

It’s all about those perforations 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ that’s why it’s called Hypericum PERFORATUM!

Was so happy to find a vibrant little patch of St. John’s Wort volunteering in the garden today!

Of course if this plant was in flower it would be easy to recognize (☀️☀️☀️), but it’s important to be able to identify your herbal allies in all the forms they take throughout the wheel of the year.

This one is easy: pluck a leaf, hold it up to the sun, if you see all the pinpricks of light shining through you have the “holiest” of leaves: St. John’s Wort!
