Herbal Immersion for Midwives 10/25 9am-1pm in Holly Springs, NC
Join the Bear Root Wise Woman Collective for a hands-on immersion in botanical and integrative therapies across the full scope of midwifery care.
Together, we will explore herbal approaches relevant to well-woman and primary care, fertility and preconception, pregnancy, labor and birth, postpartum recovery, lactation, and reproductive life transitions. We’ll consider commonly used herbs, clinical applications, preparation methods, materia medica, safety considerations, and the thoughtful integration of traditional plant knowledge into contemporary midwifery practice.
This workshop is designed to move beyond simply talking about herbs. Participants will have an opportunity to see, smell, taste, and interact with the plants themselves, exploring how taste and sensory experience can deepen our understanding of herbal actions and make plant medicine more accessible in clinical and community care.
The hands-on portion of the day will be facilitated by clinical herbalist and farmer Hannah Popish of Poppysol, LLC, who will guide participants through an interactive tasting of herbs discussed during the workshop and share her approach to understanding medicinal plants through taste, relationship, and direct experience.
Come ready to learn, taste, ask questions, share experience, and spend a morning in relationship with the plants and with one another.
ACNM continuing education application submitted; approval pending.
