Gardening Workshop: Growing and Using Healing Herbs

Manchester

Dig into the fascinating world of herbs in this hands-on gardening session in Manchester, where you'll learn the essential skills to grow your own and discover the rich stories behind them. It's a calm, feel-good way to get your hands in the soil and bring a little green into your life.

You'll start by learning how to sow seeds and propagate plants from cuttings and root divisions, then put those skills straight to work growing a range of herbs. Along the way, you'll find out how these plants have been used throughout history, and how modern science and traditional knowledge come together to shape what we know about them today.

There's a soothing moment to savour, too, as you brew your own healing herbal tea to sip and enjoy.

This session is a brilliant fit for team-building or wellbeing days, community groups, or friends and family who'd love to learn something new together.

You'll head home with a collection of propagated plants ready to become the start of your very own herb garden – a living keepsake that'll keep growing long after the session ends.

This session is to be carried out at your own venue/location - please specify this when completing your booking. I will then be in touch with you to arrange the specifics! This could be at your workplace, community venue, or even at home!
