Join Herbal Village Coordinator and Registered Herbalist Megan Kendrick for an exploration of the poisonous nightshades.
While being potent and deadly poisons, the poisonous nightshades have a fascinating history of use and have been integrated into the human experience for millennia. With historical applications in medicine, spirituality and ritual, extracts from these plants are even used today in modern medicine. In this webinar, we will explain the unique chemistry of these dangerous plants and go over the mythology, magic, spiritual associations and historical uses of three of the most common and very poisonous nightshades, Belladonna, Henbane and Datura.
This free public webinar will be available for 72 hours beginning Monday October 30th at 4pm Pacific. Register here!
