The Medicine Club

The Medicine Club was a weekly session devoted to the practice of Herbalism. A new plant or combination of plants was worked with every week as we explored the alchemy of the medicine making process in order to make tinctures, cordials, teas, and more. The Medicine Club is no longer active, but the blog remains as a record of our activities.
