Healing Spices – Herbal Medicine in your Spice Rack
Monday October 26
7-9 PM
West Milford, NJ
$39.00 includes all materials


When properly prepared, some of our favorite “seasonings” are actually profound herbal medicines. Join herbalist Robin Rose Bennett as we go beyond the delight of aromatic and spicy flavors into the exciting and beneficial world of herbal medicine. Did you know, for example, that in addition to tasting delectable in pesto Basil is an effective anti-depressant, that Ginger not only spices up your favorite stir-fry, but relieves lower back pain when used as a bath, and that Rosemary tea really does improve your memory? We’ll explore the medicinal attributes and gifts of hot spicy herbs such as: ginger, cayenne, garlic, black pepper, mustard, and horseradish and take a sensual medicine tour of aromatic herbs like sage, rosemary, marjoram, basil, lavender, and thyme. You’ll get to look at, touch, smell, and taste numerous herbs. Herbs are truly “the people’s medicine” and this course is likely to bring out the herbalist in you. Class fee includes all materials
