As part of the workshop, we will create a dandelion digestive tonic, harnessing the natural benefits of this remarkable plant. Alongside this hands-on activity, enjoy sipping on herbal teas crafted from our farm's bounty and indulge in delicious farm-fresh snacks that highlight the flavors of the season.
