Step into the living traditions of the North and explore the deep-rooted relationship between people, plants, and place. This course introduces students to the herbal knowledge practiced across Northern Europe—drawing from Demark, Germany, and Anglo-Saxon traditions—to illuminate how our ancestors understood healing, land stewardship, and the spirit of the natural world. Through a blend of history, folklore, and hands-on practice, participants learn to identify key regional herbs, understand their traditional uses, and explore the mythic and cultural frameworks that shaped ancestral healing systems. Students will examine plant lore preserved in sagas, monastic herbals, and folk practices, while also developing practical skills. This class is ideal for herbal enthusiasts, spiritual practitioners, and anyone seeking a grounded, culturally informed approach to plant medicine. No prior experience is required—only curiosity and a willingness to reconnect with the wisdom of the land.
