Plant Allies for Bicyclists: HERBAL FIRST AID

SUNDAY APRIL 22, 2012  ~  1-3 PM

at HOMESPUN BIKES, OAKLAND

In this 2-hour workshop, we’ll talk about bike-portable remedies that you can make yourself to address common roadside ailments like scrapes, sunburn, dehydration, and achy, sore muscles. Once you learn the plants, you can pick them fresh and make your own bike-portable medicine. There will be a demonstration herbal first-aid kit to unpack, and some plant medicine to make and take home. Ride your bike, name more plants, heal more scrapes.
