A lot of new knowledge at a herbalist workshop

Behind us is another well-visited and successfully conducted workshop on the topic of using herbs. It was led by a member of the LAZ association and an active herbalist, Mrs. Pavla Rozina, the herbal farm Pr` Janez, which has been engaged in the cultivation and collection of herbs and forest fruits for 5 years.

The workshop was organized by the LAZ association with the financial support of the municipality of Šmartno pri Litija. It took place on November 27, 2014, starting at 5 p.m., in the Pustov mlin inn.

The workshop was divided into two parts. In the first, herbs were shown, which are mainly used to make tea mixtures. Plants that still thrive in our area were shown, with an emphasis on organic production and harvesting.

In a short break, we tried three types of teas made from herbs grown and collected at the Pr´Janez farm. In the second part, we learned how to properly collect and store herbs and how to prepare tea mixtures.
