Join herbalist Emily Pearson Ryan and printmaking instructor Jessie Merriam for an exploration of mullein - a powerful plant for respiratory health and so much more!
Mullein grows voluntarily throughout our part of the world. It addition to providing stark beauty to the landscape, all parts of the plant can be used medicinally.
Students will first spend time with Emily learning about the botany and ecology of this Mullein, and will be part of a discussion on the medicinal and other uses for this abundant herb.
After a snack break where we’ll sample some mullein tea/infusion, students will then work with printmaking artist Jessie Merriam to carve a 4” x 6” woodblock print depicting the plant. Paper will be provided, and students will leave with several prints and their own block to continue practicing. We’ll encourage continued discussion on this powerful plant ally while we carve!
