Samhain (the originator of Halloween) is an ancient festival that marks the end of the Celtic year, remembrance and honouring of ancestors, protection and crossing thresholds when the veil between this world and the otherworld was said to be at its thinnest. Plants have long been used as our allies offering guidance, protection and grounding at liminal times such as this.

We invite you to an evening of herbal discovery. Explore the history, folklore, magical and medicinal virtues of some of the herbs associated with this time of year. You will have the chance to make your own Samhain inspired blend of herbs to take home and there will be a tea meditation to connect with one of these powerful plant allies.

This event will be facilitated by herbalist Rachel Bescoby. Places are limited to 6.
