My Lecture Today on the Herb Rosemary

Thanks to all of you who asked about my lecture today. I had a great time and it seems everyone enjoyed it by the response. Matter of fact they have asked me to come back again.
It was funny to me to say that I have been practicing herbal medicine for over 25 years. Made me sound old : ) In actuality its more like 30 years .
I talked about the value of Rosemary as a culinary and medicinal herb. Supplied them with a couple recipes, some small bundles of rosemary gathered this morning from my garden. Showed them how to make a simple rosemary wreath and answered lots and lots of questions about herbal medicine.

I shared a bit about the Rosemary salve I make for sore muscles and for congestion. Its simple and works so well. Rosemary is wonderful for anxiety, congestion, circulation and a few other medical issues.

At some point in time I will take a group out to the fields and woods to teach them about wild-crafting herbs.
Today was so much fun for me. I so enjoy sharing about herbs and the ways in which they can help us.

After the meeting, Melanie and I went out for lunch. Will share some pictures of that in a bit.

I was presented with a gift bag that held a wonderful mug, a tea caddy that holds tea bags and a packet of sugar along with the most wonderful smelling coaster, filled with spices.
