Join us for this special hands-on learning opportunity — an annual tradition in a new location.
Venture into the Wild…with Kristy Bredin, Herbalist and Learner Limbach, Seaweed Aficionado.
Seaweeds have traditionally been important plants for food and healing among coastal people throughout the world and are a rich source of diverse nutrients uncommonly available in land plants.
This three-hour in-the-field adventure will cover:

- optimal harvest times
- sustainable harvesting
- drying techniques
- healing properties
- iodine and thyroid health
- external uses of seaweeds
- pollution issues
Participants will take home a jar of kelp pickles we will make in class.
