The healing powers of wild medicinal plants are endless, from bug bites and upset stomachs to treating arthritis and heart disease.  Learn how to identify and harvest a diverse array of medicinal plants found in the northern Rockies.  We’ll make medicinal oils, salves, lip balms, tinctures and herbal teas as well as discuss techniques for drying and storing herbs.  Plants will be harvested outside of Glacier National Park.  For a complete weekend of immersion in the wonders of medicinal plants, be sure to sign up for Nature’s Healers: Wild Medicinal Identification, June 28.
