Speaker: Isla Burgess, Medical Herbalist.  “I believe that knowing the plants that grow around you well is a Conservation and Sustainable action. I also believe that knowing a few plants really well is more efficacious clinically than knowing a little about a much larger Materia Medica. When we live among our local plants, watch daily their growth pattern and responses, we know just how much we can gather in the current year. We also know how different seasons affects their nature and over time how they are adapting to change. We can do much to change our prescribing and contribute to reducing the decline of plant species in the wild. We become a ‘Biophiliac’.” — Isla Burgess. Using examples of plants that we all think we know well, this workshop explore Isla's process.
