Here we are! The peak of all things summer 😊

Come get your workshops!

🌱Next weekend I’ll be teaching Herbal First Aid on Sunday August 9th. There are many ways to think of this topic, I tend to think of it as first aid kit essentials I carry with me on a hike or camping trip, and how to heal tissue damage 😊.

🌱 on Saturday August 15 we’ll talking poisonous plants, constituents to watch for, side effects of herbs and much more. We’ll take a little walk at Knapps View to meet some of our favorite local medicinal and poisonous plants.

🌱I’ll be back Goodmaker Acres on Sunday August 23rd for Hedge Herbalism where we diving go to the Underworld with Elder and Mugwort.

🌱 then on Friday September 4th Ali from Ali Rohde 🌿 will be join us us for fall syrups and decoctions.

🌱 I’ll be back All One One All for our annual adaptogens class where we’re talking local and not so local energizing plants and mushrooms

We are so excited for our May and June line-up! Herbal education for the home herbalist is at the core of what we offer here at Vulgaris Herbs: common herbs, common wisdom to support our community, friends and family.

We are starting things off with two workshops with Ali from :

🌱 (much needed) Herbal Support for Stress and Anxiety on Friday May 22nd. Ali has been teaching this class for a few years now, she’s done all the deep dives, all the experiments and is bringing in years of direct experience working with herbs and rituals to support the nervous system. This class goes into nervine herbs and beyond into a wide array of herbal actions, protocols and preparations that can fit into everyone’s busy lives.

🌱 next up she will be teaching Hand Crafting Herbal Oils and Salves on Friday June 12. This is hands down one of our most popular classes! Ali has been handcrafting herbal products through and if you’ve had the pleasure to try her oils and salves, you know why this class is so incredibly loved. Come learn the tips and tricks of making effective topical remedies, the different kinds of oils and extraction methods, and make your own blend to take home, plus so much more!

🌱 On Saturday June 20th, I’ll be teaching a hands-on, practical class on tincture making as part of our Learn Herbalism series. If you’ve been struggling to understand the chemistry, ratio math and all the different combinations of meenstrums and extraction methods, you will love this class!

Working with plant medicine is all about understanding the context of how that medicine gets in a bottle and into our bodies. Our Learn Herbalism classes aim to do just that, and empower you with confidence not just to make your own medicine but to navigate the products you find on the shelves.

🍸 last but not least, master herbalist mixologist Zach Fisher from is back for Herbal Cocktails on Friday June 26! This is such a fun class, with lots of tastings, playing with herbs and flavors, and enjoying some speakeasy vibes on a Friday evening. 👌

Hello everyone! Alex here, as many of you may know we are expecting a little girl in the next few weeks. I’ll be taking a little break from the shop while we nurture our little family for May and June. We will remain open Saturday and Sunday from 12-5pm.

We have a few classes coming up which I’ll post soon and just detail here. And you’ll be seeing some familiar faces at the shop while I’m out. ☺️

On May 22nd will be here teaching about Herbal Support for Stress and Anxiety.

Ali will be back on June 12th for Crafting Herbal Oils and Salves.

The lovely Hilary from will also offer a workshop and will be at the shop on most days, along with Alana and Mel . So so thankful for these amazing women holding it down while I’m away. ❤️❤️❤️

Last but not least come see for the Spring Festival happening May 23 and 24th. So sad I’ll be missing it but so excited that you don’t have to! ☺️
