Healing Weeds - Foraging and Herbal Medicine

Spent a gorgeous afternoon learning about the plants local to my area last Sunday. It was a brilliant walk and I've really enjoyed recognising so many more parts of nature in my neighbourhood and beyond. Maria is a great guide and I highly recommend the foraging walk for a lovely afternoon out in nature!

I cannot recommend Healing Weeds enough.At short notice, Maria provided an incredible foraging walk in Morden Hall Park, South London. 15 of us wandered through woodlands and meadows, the versatility of weeds" such as stinging nettles

Maria took a group of us foraging on one of the wettest afternoons in memory but her enthusiasm and knowledge made the whole experience such a pleasure. I highly recommend Marias foraging walks to anyone interested in connecting with plants and nature more. I am keen to go on more in the future! Thank you!!

Maria was welcoming. The walk was great fun and learnt a lot. It has ignited my desire learn a lot more. Thank you, would highly recommend going on a walk with Maria.

I really loved the Healing Weeds calming infused oils and balm workshop in Bristol! Maria was great, super knowledgeable and very friendly. She kept us all interested throughout the whole session, and I've been using my handmade balms almost daily since we made them! I've recommended Healing Weeds to a few friends in Bristol. Nice to do with friends/ family or by yourself!

Maria's knowledge is absolutely mindblowing! I didn't know what to expect and since we walked and foraged in a local area that I've been to before several times, I didn't think I'd be surprised so much. She pointed out so many interesting things to us and I couldn't believe how many plants that grow right on our doorsteps are actually edible. Furthermore Maria was incredibly knowledgeable about the human body and how the plants can affect it. Whatever the group asked her about the many plants we spotted on the way, she knew it! The other nice thing was how laid back everything was. We could take our time and completely go with the group's pace. It was an absolutely amazing day out and I would recommend it to anyone! Also amazing as a gift for a friend, you can't go wrong. And we got to take home homemade syrup too! Cannot wait to book onto my next foraging adventure with Maria :)

I have now done both a summer and autumn foraging workshop with Maria - and can't wait for the next one! Maria has a vast amount of knowledge, which is impressive, but even more so is her delivery. She has a delightful manner and sense of humour, engaging with all ages with skill and ease.

I had a lovely learning experience with Maria. We shared stories about the plants on the pleasant walk down by the river. I learnt how to make flower and plant cordials.Maria brought some different herb infusions for me to sample. All in all a super experience. If I'm over in the UK I'll definitely be attending one of her many foraging workshops again.

What a treat - even though the weather was a bit grim! I thoroughly enjoyed my foraging walk with Maria. It was really nice to amble around with my husband, dogs and a nice group of people looking and finding out about the different plants on our walk. This was a lovely present from my daughter for mothers day. If you're thinking of buying this for your mum - do it!
