Get dirty every Wednesday from 4:30 – 5:30 in our bilingual learning patch. Weeding, watering, planting and growing community is what we’re up to, and you can too!
May 2022 Update
It’s been awhile since our last update – we’ve been keeping busy!
Overwintering in a pandemic was a time for wellness care packs and covid care packs.
We taught a fire cider class at the Huerto Churchill garden and the community made 5 gallons to distribute!
In March we began hosting workshops at Mountain Rose Herb’s annex. There’s a different topic each time, usually a demonstration of making an easy herbal remedy and participants take home a sample as well as the instructions to make it themselves. You’ll find us there the last Sunday of each month from 1-3pm. This month’s offering will be “All About Rose.”
BotanicFest happened this year – after a long pandemic pause and a rain delay – and we were there too!
We did some design work on our learning garden at the Skinner City Community Garden in Eugene OR and have begun implementing that intention. We’re so excited to partner with Huerto de la Familia once again on this garden patch to develop a bi-lingual sharing space where people will come together to learn and share knowledge about the plant world in Spanish & English!
HWB Eugene Fundraiser Event
All about Rose
More than just a beautiful flower, rose offers many beneficial medicinal properties. Join the HWBEugene herbal team to learn about this versatile plant. From skincare to tasty treats, and even promoting wellness, rose is a plant to delight in. Participants will learn about the different properties of rose, sample edible and body care products, and walk away with easy recipes they can do at home.
This is a fundraiser for HWBEugene. Sliding scale suggested donation is $5 to $50. We’re an all-volunteer non-profit organization and every dollar goes toward the cost of making more quality herbal products that we distribute for free.
