See the City GREEN - Spring Classes

Greetings Plant Lovers!

The Green World Wakes!  Spring is upon us!  And the Urban Herb School is hitting the ground running, so to speak.I'm ridiculously excited to be offering this class again this season.  Largely because we'll have a chance to visit the same 5 sites 3 times.  We'll be able to see the beautiful spectrum of colours that ebb and flow across the landscape like a River of Rainbow. We'll smell the various perfumes (wafts of propolis from Cottonwoods are already noticeable!).  We'll watch plants come up, grow, fade and give way to the next wave.  We'll nibble, taste and experience the plants in all their expressions.  We'll use all our senses to learn to See into the Green.For more info about the class, the school or the instructor, please visit... UrbanHerbSchool.ca
