🌸The white peonies are in bloom in the garden! 🌸

These beautiful flowers are so much more than ornamental. In traditional Chinese Medicine, White Peony Root (Bai Shao) is one of the most treasured and widely used herbs. Known for its ability to nourish the blood, calm the liver and ease pain, it has been a cornerstone of Chinese herbal medicine for centuries. It is particularly valued for supporting gynecological health, relieving muscle tension and spasms, and reducing inflammation.

And what better way to deepen your connection with plants like this one than by spending a day in the medicine garden itself!

🌿 Plant Medicine Day 🌿

Join us on Sunday 5th July, 10am–4pm for a beautiful day of harvesting, tea-making, plant meditation and fire-side sharing , all set within the medicine garden.
