"During this session, Rosie from Urban Herbal will introduce springtime herbs and guide you through tea tasting and how to make a herbal oxymel, plus oxymel tasters and loads of opportunities for questions and discussions about getting started with home herbalism. The oxymel will be made using sustainably sourced honey from the Make Hamilton community garden in Birkenhead and all the herbs used during the class have been locally grown or foraged."
