Discover how plants have historically aided communities in times of turmoil & regrowth and how this kinship can strengthen our resilience today
9-Week Online Course
30th July - 24th September, 2026
Live Sessions at 10:30am PDT / 6:30pm BST
At a time of environmental and social upheaval, many of us feel a pull to reconnect: to our ancestors, to the land, and to the plants that have always grown alongside us.
HONOURING
New & Old Growth
Celtic Plantlore gathers a remarkable circle of herbalists, storytellers & visionaries to help us follow our pull to reconnect with land and lore.
Together, we’ll explore folk medicine stories & songs, herbal traditions born from political struggle, and the long relationship between people and the green world, both historical and present-day.
We’ll look at how plants have carried communities through hard times and helped them grow again.

Over 9 weeks, wisdom keepers, educators, and folklorists from Scotland, Ireland and England, alongside descendants living in Turtle Island, will guide us on the vibrant green path.
Through old songs and stories, we’ll encounter ancestral relationships with the plants of these lands, while also learning from present-day herbalists working in alliance with the green world for social change.
