  • Wild School Wednesdays Salve Making
    9:00 am-11:30 am
    04/12/2023
    290 Porter Rd SE Bessemer, AL 35022

    For enthusiastic learners of all ages! Bring the whole family to the farm to get an intro to permaculture, herbalism, and the homesteading lifestyle!

    By popular request, we are offering some time on the farm for families to gather and immerse themselves in the permaculture, herbalism, and homesteading lifestyles. The classes are aimed at students of elementary age- adults, but of course it is never to early to start immersing younger children in this lifestyle. We are amazed at what our littles pick up and retain!

    We will meet the second Wednesday of each month January- May of 2023. Prices are per family, but please let us know the number of people to expect so we can cap the events once we’ve reached a certain number of people.

    April 12, 9-11:30AM
    Salve making!
    An easy, safe, effective way to introduce children to herbalism is a “boo boo” salve. We will gather on farm to demonstrate how to forage and/or grow the ingredients for our healing salve. We will make the salve together, and everyone gets to go home with a 2oz salve! We have noticed engaging kids in this process gets them excited about using herbs, and ready to learn more! $50

  • Annual Plant Sale & Classes

    04/23/2023
    290 Porter Rd SE Bessemer, AL 35022
    Walden Farmacy brings you a morning of plant walks, permaculture, and family friendly fun!
    Stop by any time to shop our plant sale.

    Trevor and Joanna Mann will lead an Intro to Permaculture class and tour of their permaculture style homestead. Then we will lead an herb “walk” (we may not make it far with all of the current abundance at the farm) where we discuss cultivation or wild harvesting, how to utilize plant medicine, specific indications, dosage, and more. The herb walk will cover new plants each month as well as cover the same plants in different stages of growth sometimes.

    We will have herbs, plants, and cool drinks for sale, too!

    After the tour, we will have catering available from our friends at Sorelle along with drinks and herbs from Walden Farmacy available for purchase.  Bring a blanket or chair to sit on, or feel free to take food and drink to go if need be!

    At Walden Farmacy – 290 Porter Rd SE, Bessemer.
    Tour 9:15-10:45am
    Herb Walk 11-12pm
