First Aid: Medic Skills & Herbal Remedies for Everyday Emergencies

Drawing on Missy's background as a street medic and clinical herbalist, this workshop will provide concrete skills for handling medical emergencies and basic information about select healing plants.  We'll be weaving lecture time, practice scenarios, and plant walks into the day.  Frequent hikers, community herbalists, and anyone who wants to be helpful in emergency medical situations will find this class useful. No previous experience necessary.

Be sure to bring:

-A notebook and pen for taking notes

-Day pack or purse with sunscreen and water bottle

-Lunch or a snack

-Clothes for playing outdoors
