About

Winter is coming, friends! Spend a cozy night with us and get yourself all ready. Clinical herbalist Abby Rappoport and local food writer Anne Willhoit team up to guide you through the process of a variety of herbal preparations you can make at home. 

They’ll answer questions you didn't know you had, and bring some kitchen wisdom to your recipe box. You'll make a convivial berry shrub, a boosting elderberry elixir, and a medicinal herbal infusion to take home and enjoy. A light snack and hot drink will be shared by the group during Q&A.

We're reprising this fun class that includes lots of laughter, a community feel, and many goodies for you to take home for the dark days ahead. Gather your friends and spend a Saturday night with us in the kitchen.

 

Details

A materials fee of $30, included in the price of the class, will cover everything you need. 

Class Policies

  • Ages 16 and up are welcome.
  • You must wear closed-toe shoes to class.
  • You must be registered for the class (no drop-ins).

Anne Willhoit

She is grateful for the seasonal bounty that our island provides and prioritizes local, seasonal ingredients in her recipes. Always excited to teach at BARN, she has been involved with it since the beautiful kitchen and concept was just a mere gleam in the founding committee's eye.

Instructor
Abby Rappoport

Abby, a medicinal plant lover, has always had a deep affection for plants (her first job out of college was as a floral designer). Her interest in using them medicinally bloomed while she was studying for her master's degree in Chinese medicine at the Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine College in Berkeley, Calif. In school she focused on herbal medicine, and after graduation became registered as a professional clinical herbalist with the American Herbalist Guild. She's dedicated to teaching how powerful plant medicine can be, and is always happy to talk your ear off about medicinal plants! When she’s not working in her apothecary or garden, you can find Abby teaching somatic movement therapy, using movement as medicine to help folks feel better in their bodies. Connect with her at www.abbyrapp.com or on Instagram @medicinegarden_pnw or @movement_breath_health
