Green Violet Herbs

Green Violet Herbs Welcome to Green Violet Herbs I'm Sharon Brewer, I have been working with plants and specifically herbs for over 20 years.

I am a Clinical Herbalist with a Masters Degree in Herbal Medicine from The Tia Sophia Institute in Laurel Maryland. Working with plants is a way of life for me. For many years I have been interested in herbs and the amazing healing properties they posses. My plants are carefully grown from seedlings, using organic methods, then harvested by hand at the peak or their potency. This kind of attention results in fresh, high quality herbs and herbal products. I believe that honoring these special plants allows us to use their unique gifts to help our bodies heal, they truly are ‘Plants for Life’. Herbal Medicine is the art and science of skillfully collecting, preparing and using herbs. The strength of herbs lies in their ability to nurture the body's innate capacity to heal itself. Physiologically speaking, our body strives to maintain health and balance. When negative factors such as stress or a poor diet iterferes with this balance it allows disease an opportunity. Herbs gently support and allow the body to reach a place where it can begin to heal itself and regain strength and vitality. Medicinal plants and herbal medicines, when properly prepared can be an invaluable tool in helping you reach your health goals. Try our products made from home grown and ethically wildcrafted herbs. We sell potent healing salves and soothing creams, herbal teas and tinctures and many other herbal products.

"Many thanks to all who came out and participated. Happy, happy wildcrafting and herbal gardening to all! May we all grow strong and wise and use the earth’s bounty in conscious ways to cultivate a deeper connection to ourselves, our community, the greater ecosystem and beyond…." ~Satyam

At first Sharon talked about the seasons and how spring is the time when our bodies awaken, just as the earth livens up in spring. She then transitioned into springtime plants that can help bring balance and energy: Nettle, chickweed, violet, dandelion, red clover, and burrock root. Sharon emphasize...

Announcing Green Violet Herb’s
Spring Herbal Workshop: A healthy transition into springtime
with Sharon Brewer, Owner & Clinical Herbalist
A Collaborative Workshop with Renaissance Yoga

Sun, Apr 29, 2p – 4:30p
Galesville Memorial Hall
$25 by Apr 25 // $30 after Apr 25

Welcome spring as you cleanse, energize and reconnect through our Herbal Spring Workshop. We will discuss common wild spring plants easily found locally, describe these plants and their respective properties, investigate where we can find them, and learn how to prepare and use them in spring tonics, infusions, teas and food.

We will also reconnect with the earth by learning how to make a small garden and discuss the many benefits of gardening. We will have hands-on projects throughout the workshop – including preparations such as infusions, teas, and wild food dishes for the table.

To top it off we will prepare a gardener’s herbal salve to protect your hands and feet (just in case you like to garden barefoot!)
Hope you will join us for this unique springtime celebration!

Sharon is a regular attendee of Renaissance Yoga classes. Her first herbal workshop with Renaissance Yoga back in Sep 2011 was a great success!

Bringing the "community" back to agriculture. Promoting fresh and local food! Recipes and inspiration to help reconnect your family with nature

Growing your own food in your backyard garden is one of the most rewarding things you can do. The satisfaction that comes from feeding your family and giving them nutritious, organic produce is well worth the effort you put into your garden. If you haven’t done so yet, it’s time to start saving seed...

A Meeting

She steps into the dark swamp
where the long wait ends.

The secret slippery package
drops to the weeds.

She leans her long neck and tongues it
between breaths slack with exhaustion

and after a while it rises and becomes a creature
like her, but much smaller.

So now there are two. And they walk together
like a dream under the trees.

In early June, at the edge of a field
thick with pink and yellow flowers

I meet them.
I can only stare.

She is the most beautiful woman
I have ever seen.

Her child leaps among the flowers,
the blue of the sky falls over me

like silk, the flowers burn, and I want
to live my life all over again, to begin again,

to be utterly
wild.
