St. Johns County Council on Aging

In this course, we will focus upon the therapeutic actions of herbs and how they can be used in the treatment and prevention of common conditions. Each week, we will focus on specific herbal actions, herbs with those therapeutic effects and the ways in which those herbs can be used from teas to tinctures to tonics. You will be presented with a variety of herbs and will have the opportunity to put together simple and delicious remedies that suit your needs.

You get to take something home every week!
