Gardens Manitoba “Hands on Herbs” with Louise May from Aurora Farm.
Monday, November 3, 2025
Louise May, a passionate herbalist and founder of Aurora Farm, will be presenting a unique and immersive workshop titled “Hands-on Herbs”. With a commitment to interactive learning, she plans to engage the audience through sensory experiences. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with herbs in a truly hands-on way. The presentation will include various items to pass around, touch, and smell, creating an engaging and educational experience. Attendees will leave with a deeper appreciation and understanding of herbs, their uses, and benefits.
Louise May’s Garden, Aurora Farm – My childhood love of gardening has taken full bloom here at Aurora Farm where I have been gardening for over 20 years. These gardens express my personal connection to the land, to my own food sovereignty and to the needs of the larger community. Based on Indigenous teachings, Permaculture and Regenerative Agriculture, we have many themed gardens: my own Zone 1 food garden Medicinal Moon Garden, Sisters’ Garden, Youth Camp Sun Tea Garden, Fireweed Garden for culinary herbs and edible flowers as well as our orchard interspersed throughout.
