The Wise Woman Center in Woodstock, NY, is home to a great variety of plant life. It is also home to Susun Weed, world renowned herbalist and author and a spokesperson for the Wise Woman Tradition. Here she teaches people who come from far places to apprentice or just take a one-day class on plants, health and womenÂ’s empowerment!

This October, she will be leading her annual class on how to prepare herbal medicines yourself. Long-time teacher of empowering our health choices by harvesting plants local to us, Susun also prefers to teach us to take charge of our health by preparing our own remedies and wild foods.

If joining this class, you will identify, harvest, prepare, and use (and eat!) a variety of local wild herbs. Prepared will be herbal oils, tinctures, vinegars, and perhaps even honey. The vegetarian lunch provided will also be a treat to local wild food fare.
