February’s Featured Recording:
Five Allies for Our Times with Kat Maier, RH (AHG)

In this class, herbalist Kat Maier explores the wonderful medicine of Lobelia (Lobelia inflata), Poke (Phytolacca americana), Prickly Ash (Xanthoxylum americanum), Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca) and Black Cohosh (Actea racemosa) and how appropriate they are for these challenging times. We learn their sacred language through chemistry, medicine making and a brief plant journey. (Catalog Number 19ME04)

This class takes you on a beautiful botanical journey with Kat Maier. You can join Kat in person at this year’s Medicines from the Earth Herb Symposium (May 17-19) in Black Mountain, NC! Kat will teach a class on Botanical Analogs for At-Risk Medicinals, and you can join for her beloved plant walk on Establishing Plant Relations.

The legacy of Herbal Educational Services, Medicines from the Earth, and the Southwest Conference on Botanical Medicine has taken root over the past three decades. Founded by Linnea and Larry Wardwell in 1993, with Ric Scalzo as an early contributor and mentor, their website BotanicalMedicine.org has nurtured the herbal community for the past 30 years by sowing the seeds of knowledge and connection across disciplines and modalities of clinical herbalism practice.

The first event was held in Ashland, Massachusetts, then moved to an extension campus of Boston University, which led to an island off the coast of Maine, then to venues in Oregon, and finally to Black Mountain, North Carolina, and the Sonoran University in Tempe, Arizona where herbal tradition and science are celebrated twice annually, bringing together a network of practitioners that now extends across the globe.
