Foraged Medicine Bag

In traditional cultures around the world, almost every group of people had a healer with knowledge of herbal medicines. And that healer almost always had a medicine bag of some sort. The style of bag and its contents varied widely, but the general concept is always the same- to have basic first aid necessities on hand and ready for use.

In this camp, you will be creating your own medicine bag. You will learn to work with a variety of foraged herbs to make medicinal salves, balms, tinctures, washes, teas, and compresses. These remedies can be used to treat a variety of common minor medical problems such as scrapes and cuts, burns, poison ivy, stings and mosquito bites, stomach and intestinal issues, headahces, muscle and joint aches, and minor coughs and colds. You will also make a simple, but functional, cinch bag to hold all of your new herbs and potions.
