Plant Teachings Collective
Plant Teachings Collective is a collaboration between Kootenay based herbalists Patrick Kooyman of Blue Lotus Ethnobotanicals and Travis Cartwright and Marie Zak of Althaea Herbals. In this program, we work with six local herbs that grow wild or are cultivated in the West Kootenay region. We empower participants with the training and skills to use our own built-in sensory tool kit of taste and smell to evaluate, understand and gain insight into the qualities of herbal medicine within their own bodies.
