Foraging First Aid

Learn how to identify and use common wild plants in first aid situations through this hands-on introduction to foraging herbal medicine. Gain practical skills in plant ID, field preparations, and integrating herbs into your first aid kit.

Step into the fields and forests of the Horn Farm Center with the Northern Appalachia School for a hands-on exploration of how the plants around us can become powerful allies in first aid situations. Learn to identify and use common wild plants to treat everyday injuries and ailments right where they happen, on the trail, in the woods, or in your own backyard. We will cover basic wilderness first aid concepts, including:

  • Plant Identification - learn to confidently identify medicinal plants in the wild
  • Field Herbal Preparation - create effective treatments in the field using minimal tools
  • Integrating Herbs in your First Aid Kit - supplement your traditional first aid kit with foraged remedies

Whether you're a hiker, herbalist, naturalist, or just curious about the healing power of plants, this class will equip you with valuable tools to feel more prepared—and connected—when out in nature.
