The Science of Herbal Therapeutics with Calyx Liddick
May 19 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Discover herbalism through the science of phytochemistry. After introducing essential concepts of traditional western herbalism, we will explore key qualities of common bioregional herbs and how their constituents translate to their therapeutics. We will also honor the lives of the plants themselves by understanding how these constituents relate to their own physiological processes.
Meet your Teacher, Calyx Liddick!
Calyx is a bioregional herbalist and ethnobotanist. She is the founding director of the Northern Appalachia School. She is an outspoken advocate for accessible education, social and ecological justice, and ethical practice in plant work. She is committed to integrating plantwork as a life way, helping others develop a rooted relationship with the land and its more-than-human community, and healing the damage from extractive and hierarchical relationships between people and plants.
About LandBack Tax
From 2022 onward, Fox Haven will donate $2 from each event ticket to the Kikeokan Foundation to pay LandBack tax, acknowledging our access to stolen Indigenous land. The Kikeokan Foundation is an Indigenous-led initiative working to restore ancestral land and sovereignty to the Piscataway and other Indigenous communities of the Chesapeake.
