At Wild Roots we believe the best way to
learn about plants is from the the plants themselves. Over fifty percent of class time is spent in
the field, providing the opportunity to meet with plants up close and personal
in their natural habitats. We roam
riverbanks and creek beds, meadows, marshes, fields, forested hillsides and
sub-alpine meadows, backyard gardens, and lawns. Along the way we not only stop to smell the
flowers, we also taste and touch ~ learning becomes a total sensory
experience! We also take time to play –
splash in the creek, swim in the river, bathe in a waterfall, lie in fields of
golden dandelions and sweet smelling clover, rest in cool, shady forest glens.
The
classes in themselves become a healing experience.
Learning objectives are clear and classes
are experiential, fun, relaxed and informal while at the same time loaded with
information with lots of opportunity for hands-on learning. The participants in
our programs come from all walks of life and their knowledge and experience
becomes part of the curriculum.
We offer a wide variety of learning opportunities including:
Certificate programs, Plant Walks and Talks, Medicine Making Series, Workshop Intensives and Much, Much More.
