Learn to grow and harvest medicinal herbs in your garden in the Hay Barn at UCSC or online. Clinical herbalist Paula Grainger will share some of her favorite herbs which can be found in the UCSC Farm and Garden and which grow well in and around Santa Cruz. Learn how these herbs can be safely and effectively used to improve your and your family’s health and wellness. With hints and tips on cultivation and harvesting, Paula will also describe how you can process and preserve your herb harvest to create a herbal home apothecary you can use all year round.

This class will include a presentation followed by a golden hour stroll through the garden to meet the herbs in person and learn more about their remarkable properties.
