Foodie Fridays: The People’s Medicine, August 25th 630-830pm

Aug 25

Join Montgomery Parks on Friday August 25th from 630-830pm for their August Foodie Fridays event. The event will take place at Josiah Henson Museum and Park Visitor Center (11410 Old Georgetown Road, North Bethesda, MD 20852). Plants have been used in medicine for thousands of years. Today they can be found in 40% of prescription drugs in the Western world. Yet, many consumers are unaware of this deeply rooted connection. Explore the intersection between traditional and holistic wellness practices, land stewardship, and home herbalism with Rhiannon Smith, founder of a Takoma Park-based herbal apothecary. Registration can be found here.
