St. John's Wort-A 2-Part Class Series! | Vervain |
Back |
We are teaming up with local experts, healers, and Boise Parks & Rec to learn about and harvest St. John's Wort and help support native landscapes at the same time!
St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) is a plant that has been used as a medicinal herb for over 2,000 years. Learn more about the plant's medicinal properties at the Vervain Collective on Tuesday, June 24. However, St. John's Wort is also a noxious weed in Idaho! It can outcompete native plants and is toxic to livestock.
Please join us for a 2-part event!
