Join us for our monthly exploration of a powerful and time-honored plant ally: Yarrow (Achillea millefolium). Known for its delicate, feathery leaves and resilient spirit, yarrow has been used for centuries to support wound healing, circulation, digestion, and overall immune health.
In this class, we’ll explore yarrow’s rich history in traditional herbal medicine, its energetics and actions, and how it can be incorporated into your home apothecary. We’ll cover plant identification, ethical harvesting practices, and a variety of preparation methods, including teas, tinctures, and topical applications.
Participants will have the opportunity to engage with the plant through sensory experience and leave with practical knowledge to confidently work with yarrow in their daily lives.
Whether you are just beginning your herbal journey or looking to deepen your connection with plant medicine, this class offers an inviting and hands-on introduction to one of the Pacific Northwest’s most versatile herbs.
If you grow Yarrow, feel free to bring some to class!
