Ushering us back into our monthly Member Meeting routine is Rivka Schwartz of Health and Hearth NHwho will be presenting on her work as an Herbalist and Healer on Wednesday 8/14 at 7pm

at the Lawrence Barn.

Rivka will be leading us on a short walk around the Barn to discuss various local herbs and plants so bring your questions for the clinical herbalist! She will also be making and serving some cooling beverages with electrolytes for us to sample.

In her own words:

I have been privileged to work as an herbalist for about 15 years and turned this into an herbal healthcare business about 4 years ago.

In my practice, I care for the health and wellbeing of individuals: from prevention of disease to working with acute and chronic conditions.

This is through compassionate, personalized care; education; and empowering individuals to develop skills for a healthy life.

I also love to teach community classes in healthy cooking, fermenting and herbal remedies.

I own Health & Hearth in Nashua, New Hampshire; I also lead plant walks and teach at Beaver Brook Association.

I studied herbal medicine here in New England and am certified as a wellness coach by the Mayo clinic.

I use this knowledge and years of experience in my own home, where I keep a constant supply of homemade fermented vegetables,

nutritious foods, and herbal remedies to help keep my family healthy.
