In this evening workshop, participants will learn about blending teas/tisanes for medicinal purposes. Learn from Emily Springer of Meeting House Farm – a MOFGA certified organic farm in Scarborough, Maine. This class will focus on the medicinal properties of a selection of herbs and how to combine them for maximum effect. Learn about herbs that support the respiratory system, digestive system, nervous system and immune system. Participants will taste a variety of herbal tisanes, and blend their own medicinal tisane to take home.
This class builds on the basics of tea blending, as discussed in The Art of Blending Tea on November 11. However, no pre-requisites are required in order to enroll. This workshop will start with a brief overview of the basics of the art of blending tea.
Blending Medicinal Herb Tisanes is co-hosted by The Ecology School & MOFGA.
