Herbal Natives

Bursting with goodness in the polytunnels 😀

I’m regularly spending time in this amazing herbal apothecary now. Stuart is a master herbalist and very generous with his guidance along the twisty winding herbal path. https://www.plantasmagorical.com/

Really grateful to Justin for saving one of the herb beds from creeping buttercup. I only looked away for a minute and it was a mass of yellow flowers! It’s a pretty, but rampant little treasure. ( the buttercup that is , not Justin🤣)

How lovely and clear is this blood test booklet from - so generous with the way he shares his clinical knowledge.

Flower Power Tea £7.50/ packet. Sorry, again - I only have a few of these (until everything flowers again). Loved making this blend- reminds me of the rose potions I made as a child. I’ve added in red clover and chamomile to help restore hormonal balance.

ALL SOLD!
Hayfever tea. £7.50 for a packet of very special herbs grown here at Glasfryn. Message me if you’d like some- I only have a handful because it’s the last of my elderflower. This potent blend is packed with anti- allergy actions. It’s also decongestant and anti-inflammatory and soothing for the airways.

True love is the gift of chaga personally harvested from a birch tree in Scotland. Now how on earth do I break it up smaller?!

Many thanks to and for my student of the year award. It definitely takes a whole team to make a herbalist and I feel very grateful to the herbies in my year group for getting me this far # # #

Love it when someone trips over one of my herbal blends and then wants to buy some. Thanks very much for the mention Charmaine. X

When I got to my client this morning there was a fresh cuppa of Herbal Natives tea waiting for me- I love thier teas! Then having been sat down inside doing communications this afternoon it was fab to see the sun was out beaming over the headland as I walked the hill this evening. What a great end to a lovely day.

How amazing is this! Anyone feeling lonely or with mental health problems can self refer onto this by scanning the QR code. Starts 15th September.

California poppy and artichoke. Busy harvesting now, but got my fingers crossed that my alcohol licence will be granted soon for tincture making. I’d like to get these beauties in my medicine chest this winter.

Come and have a chat over a shared meal & have your say about how this garden grows.

What else are you supposed when you find the right letters in a field . 🤣. We all had a brilliant time at the Institutes Power of Plants Festival. Many, many engaging speakers. But particularly proud of my friend Liz who led a children’s session on plantain complete with a home crafted snotty nose 🤧

Turmeric! Actually managed to grow some this year 🎉

We had a fabulous yoga, herbal and mindfulness mini retreat. Sharon creates a wonderful relaxing space, bringing out some beautiful energy in the room from some genuinely lovely people. I’m hoping I’ve inspired a few to go make some restorative teas with their own garden herbs.

Making medicine !

This is going to be a really good workshop especially for anyone with mobility issues- covering helpful postures, meditation and a talk from me about using garden plants for health. Please pass on to anyone who would like to join us and try yoga in this very gentle way.

Chair Yoga workshop has a new date of Thursday 20th July. Please share around to those who have any mobility issues :). Message me to book x

I made this from flowers on my farm! Calendula is such a lovely healing herb- so easy to grow, anti inflammatory and antiseptic. Great for small cuts, burns, eczema, acne. Has a lovely Welsh name too: Melyn Mair (yellow Mary). calendulabalm; , , ,

Clary sage. The flowers are so beautiful that I can’t bring myself to harvest them for medicine. Anyone else suffer from this?

Take a day out to restore your mind, body and soul.
As an added bonus you can indulge in some herbal tea tasting with me and learn how you can use garden and hedgerow herbs to support your health.

There's a couple of spaces left on my yoga day running on the 10th June from 10-4.30pm at Penrhiwllan Hall.

All Levels Yoga session

Taraxacum officinale…… just because it’s packed full of wishes

Super pleased with the Surop Eirin Ysgaw Its made with lots of mulled wine spices and the elderberries were donated by . It’s quite a brew! Even managed some Cymraeg with a lot of help from Seems only right that Welsh herbs should have a Welsh name.

Amazing. Best delivery I’ve had for a while- thank you so much

Website is looking great, many thanks to and . This means I’ll be able to add in my bespoke healing blends so they’ll soon be available to all. 😍 https://www.herbalnatives.com/

It was so lovely at the show to have people who’d never even tried herbal tea before say that they really liked the rosemary & ginger taste of Clarity. It’s a great brain boosting mix & also helps to clear tension headaches. Dm me if you’d like some 🧐
