SUMMARY:Practical Ethnobotany at Great Dixter
DESCRIPTION:\n\nThe garden and wider estate at Great Dixter provide rich, multi-layered habitats for wildlife and humans alike. During this course you will learn to read and understand your natural surroundings, discover what plants can provide for us and how we can give back with an introduction to habitat restoration practices.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe course will take place one afternoon a month, over four months (the seashore session takes place in the early evening). You will have the opportunity to spend time outside, immersing yourself in nature, tapping in and out of various disciplines whilst developing your understanding of the different habitats that plants grow in. The day will finish with an outdoor fire, a wild snack and a warm cup of tea harvested from the land.\nTopics covered could include:\nHerbal medicine, culinary uses of plants, practical skills including glue, rope, basket making, plant and habitat identification, looking at specific plants throughout the growing season, using deep observation to better understand plant ecosystems and ourselves, habitat restoration and landscape stewardship.\nThe course is suitable for anyone with an interest in plants and the natural world whether you are a complete beginner, an outdoor practitioner wishing to build on previous skills and knowledge or are wanting to find out more about habitat restoration and conservation.\nMichael Wachter, is an experienced outdoorsman and primitive skills practitioner whose teachings come from nature.
