Indigenous Plants Masterclass with Pat Collins
We’re beyond lucky to welcome the legendary Pat Collins for a practical deep dive into the world of Indigenous Plants 🌾✨
Pat has been wildcrafting, growing, and medicine-making since the 1990s—over 30 years of practical, earth-rooted wisdom. And now, she’s bringing it straight to YOU.
In this immersive Post-HerbFest Masterclass, you’ll:
💚 Learn how to make an ointment from Indigenous plants for all kinds of skin issues
💚 Get to know these plants intimately—their healing properties, and versatile uses
💚 Learn to properly identify medicinal natives, a vital skill in wild plant medicine
💚 Take home a sample of your creation + a copy of the recipe to keep the magic going!
