A Meeting with Meadowsweet for Wild Acres Week

During our meeting with Meadowsweet we will explore all we can about the wildflower Meadowsweet. From herbal properties to historical uses and folklore, how to gather and cultivate meadowsweet and even reported magical uses ~ just for good measure. We will further meander with meadowsweet, delving into the imaginal realms through listening to a mythical and sacred story, we will reflect on this time of the year as we move towards summer solstice on June 21st. There will be time to share questions and further reflections at the end of the session.

Nicola is inspired by diverse cultures and ways of being, especially indigenous cultures attuned to living in harmony with the natural world. Nicola is curious about how to integrate such wisdom into our modern lives, and is passionate about the potential of education as a vehicle for empowerment and change. Nicola holds workshops which inspire and motivate people to take actions that promote care for the earth, ourselves, and one another.

She holds a BA in English, Media and Cultural Studies, an LLM in Human Rights Law, has completed her training in forest school leadership, and is currently undergoing a 3 year plant medicine apprenticeship. As mum to a busy 2 year old, she is all the more curious about what it will take for us as a species to thrive as members of the web of life within the ecosystem of Planet earth, and is encouraged to be part of the wonderful work of Green Sod Ireland.
