2008 Augusta Class Description


Week 4
Herbs

Marion Harless


This energetic but minimal-impact, conservation-oriented class explores the wild and tame plants of the woodlands, roadside, riverbed, yard, and garden. Field trips may range from just outside the classroom to the wilds of nearby Dolly Sods. Participants will prepare and take home liqueurs, vinegars, salves, lotions, creams, tinctures, potpourris, and more, all made with organically grown or judiciously collected herbs. There will be one lunch and dinner, and a daily tea break and snack, all featuring herbs. Supplies are around $55.
