“Join us for a day of herbal medicine-making with local plants from our very own Petaluma Marsh. We will cover plant identification and proper harvesting/preservation techniques, medicinal qualities of plants in the Petaluma Watershed as well as prepare medicinal salve and poultice for your herbal first aid kit. Build your home apothecary through hands-on experience making herbal remedies. Children 8 and up are welcome.

Friends is offering several unique workshops for individuals and families to connect with the nature and wildlife of the Petaluma Watershed. Sign up for one of our upcoming workshops and learn how track animals, make your own salves, build a fire or identify local plants. You will spend your day outside, experiencing the marsh first hand by boat and on foot. Our workshops our open to all ages and encourage you to spend time together as a family learning new skills and connecting to nature.”
