Enter Tessa’s workshop and discover the world of medicinal plants and learn how to use them!
The workshop will begin with a theoretical introduction to medicinal plants and their properties. You will choose the plants based on the daily ailments that affect you the most, for example, headaches. Then you’ll get your hands in the dirt and turn on gardening mode!
Depending on the season, the workshop will be a little different.
In autumn and winter, Tessa will teach you about cutting, dividing and layering plants. You will also learn how to make macerates and work with seeds. You will leave this workshop with a seed tray or plants to grow and a mini zero-waste care kit to slip into your pocket.
In spring/summer you will learn how to sow correctly, plant successfully, use and create different substrates and take care of your plants. Not only will you gain skills, but you will also leave the workshop with your own planter of medicinal plants and a mini zero-waste care kit to put in your pocket.
This workshop is available in several languages simultaneously. The artisan will change the workshop’s language based on the participants in attendance.
This workshop takes place from mid-April to mid-October
Workshop location:
64 Rue de la Poudrière, 1000 Brussels
