Herb Club

Adaptogen Bonbons, Teresa Boardwine of Green Comfort School of Herbal Medicine

  • Teresa Boardwine, Herbalist and owner of Green Comfort School of Herbal Medicine in Sperryville, VA will be talking to us about herbal adaptogens and how we use these plants for balancing stress, increasing endurance and stamina, regulating our nervous and immune systems and more.

    Teresa is the author of a lovely little recipe book "The Joy of BonBons, Herbal Superfood Confections" and will be demonstrating how to make her famous treats. There will be plenty of bonbon tasting and the urn will be full of hot herbal tea.

    Bring a friend and a mug for tea, everyone is welcome to join us at The River House Herb Club for free monthly herbal education..

    The River House Herb Club meets every 4th Sunday from 1:30-3 pm, in the Otter’s Den at the River House.  It’s free and everyone is invited.  The River House Little Seed Library is also located here.

    Our meetings are hosted by local herbalists and plant enthusiasts who share knowledge about using herbs as food, medicine, and more, highlighting native medicinal plants and their uses.

    Herb Club topics are interesting, relevant and engaging like gardening, medicine making, backyard herbalism, and kitchen cupboard medicine. We’ve had field trips, herb walks, and a Mother’s Day Tea.

    Our meetings are fun and informative with demonstrations, hands-on activities, and lots of plants to see, touch, smell, and taste. There’s a lot to experience at Herb Club!

    Bring a mug for herbal tea, hope to see you there.
