St John's Wort Workshop

Dive into the magic of St John's Wort and learn how to use this amazing herb in your daily life. Create your own remedies to take home!

As we move into Summer, we ride an energetic wave that peaks at the Summer Solstice - a time when the Earth is alive with growth, light, and vitality.

To honour this turning of the seasonal wheel, I’m delighted to offer this special workshop: a deep dive into the beloved healing herb, St John’s Wort - the sunshine herb, known for bringing warmth, light, and ease to the nervous system.

We’ll gather in our beautiful Wildwood Apothecary Barn, nestled just behind the medicine garden - a sacred space where our hand-harvested herbs are dried and stored. We’ll begin at 11am with a heart-led exploration of St John’s Wort and her healing gifts, before stepping into the medicine garden to meet her in her summer glory. You’ll be guided through a hands-on introduction to harvesting this special plant, with space to explore this magical plant in her natural habitat.

We’ll then return to the Barn to alchemise our freshly gathered flowers into a vibrant body oil and a healing tincture - powerful plant medicine for you to take home.

Traditionally harvested at Midsummer, St John’s Wort is at her most potent at this time. Together, we’ll honour this moment, gathering and crafting in the old ways, and calling in the living energies of the Earth.
