Adapto...what?
Adaptogens! Dive into the exciting realm of adaptogenic herbs—nature's incredible plants that help your body adapt to stress and fatigue! Our presentation kicks off with an engaging introduction to adaptogens, followed by an exploration of specific herbs and their unique properties, complete with delightful tastings of their infusions. I will also share tips on how to seamlessly incorporate these herbs into your everyday life. If we have a moment to spare, I will touch on which of these amazing herbs can be cultivated right here in Minnesota, along with some handy tips for growing and foraging.
