Your Educator

I am a nature lover and have been working in so-called alternative health care for more than 20 years as a Classical Homeopath and Functional medicine practitioner. When I moved to Eindhoven more than five years ago we bought a house that was both close to the schools and the 'bos'. Being close to nature is healing, restorative and essential for my wellbeing and I have found that most people are unfortunately quite disconnected from it.

I started walking daily in the Aanshotse Beemden and recognised many of the plants growing wild like weeds from my homeopathic studies. I had been using these plants in both their homeopathic and medicinal herbal forms in my practice back in South Africa where none of them are indigenous. So it was like an epiphany for me to discover them in their original habitat. It was like the dry facts my herbal books just came alive for me!

Looking forward to meeting you and sharing my love of plants and experience with using these 'wise weeds' to enrich your meals, and health.

Welcome to the Aanschotse Beemden

From the indoor workshop venue, we will take a short walk through the suburb of Blixembosch to the Aanshotse Beemden which is close by. On the way and in the open green space we will see edible and medicinal plants. This is the practical part of the workshop where I will help you to identify whatever is in season at that moment.
