Spring Herbs With Natalie Hessel
April 9th 10 am – noon
$20 a student
In this class we will get outside (weather permitting) and see what is growing around the Food Hub (probably more than you may think!). We will learn what herbs we can gather, grow and eat in the spring. We will also have seeds for planting some useful herbs to take home, as well as discuss planning an herb garden for the growing season. Advanced registration only. No walk-ins.

If you have pain or stiffness in these areas, this class is for you. Participants will learn breathing techniques and gentle yoga poses to help release tightness in the upper back, neck and shoulder area. This class is accessible to yoga practitioners of all levels, including those who have never before practiced yoga. Chairs will be available for those who do not wish to get up and down off the floor. Participants will take home a yoga posture sequence that can be practiced at home.
Teacher, Johanna Welzenbach-Hilliard, is experienced in teaching therapeutically-oriented adaptations and modifications of traditional yoga poses to experienced and novice yoga practitioners.
Cost is $35 and is non-refundable.
