The spices housed in most kitchen cabinets have ancient roots and are infused with centuries of varied uses—from culinary to medicinal. The class, taught by clinical herbalist Kelly McCarthy, takes an in-depth look at which medicinal components are at play, and creates concoctions to take home for use in the kitchen or medicine cabinet. This course, geared towards anyone with an interest in cooking, gardening, or herbalism, is designed to engage beginners as well as seasoned plant lovers.
