Plants are our Teachers: Celebrating Elder. Ecology, folklore, remedies and craft

A day of celebrating and giving thanks to the elder, a very valuable but often overlooked native Scottish tree. We will look at folk remedies old and new and create some simple herbal products. We will also explore what lives in and on wild elder trees and try our hand at some practical crafts using hand tools and elder wood

This is a one-day workshop with Ian Edwards – ecologist, forager and nature guide
