About the event
This session will be led by Jude Greenan, ably abetted by Olivia Cliff, both Medical Herbalists who have over 20 years each of experience and knowledge of working alongside medicinal plants.
You will be warmly welcomed to the fireside inside the cosy living room of Valis Farm where we will be emarking on an evening of myth, magic and beer.... This will be a hands on workshop in which we demonstrate, but also invite all participants to get involved. Sacred and magical plants will be introduced along the way, as we recall and retell their stories. There may be a bit of Blue Peter (here's one we prepared earlier) style presenting of various outcomes of key stages... it takes time for the magic of fermentation to happen and certainly Frome wasn't built in a day.
The evening will be interspersed with tasty tipples and a few nibbles.
