Keeping Families Healthy with Julia Green
Keeping Families Healthy with Julia Green.
Rooted in traditional plant wisdom, holistic nutrition, and practical experience, this class looks at how families can use medicinal herbs and whole foods to support every day health. Julia will cover common ailments, seasonal rhythms, and the home practices and natural remedies she uses to address these and keep her family healthy for over two decades.
Julia Green - Barnyard Midwife
“Food as Medicine” is a tenet of my life. Herbal medicine is so tightly interwoven with holistic nutrition for me that they feel inseparable. My parents gave me an upbringing rich with folk remedies. They were always giving us real food and talking about what it fed in our bodies. When I was 3 I had my first (and only) earache and my mom put warm olive oil and a small clove of garlic in my ear and covered my head and ears with a handkerchief for a few days It was better that night but they persisted for a few more days to make sure it wouldn’t come back. I absorbed deeply when they told me that if they had given me antibiotics that the ear aches would have continued to come back. I remember the bitter goldenseal powder and vitamin C chewables my dad would always give us when we had anything slightly off. “You gotta feed your immune system” he would say. At 20 years old I took a year long herbal apprenticeship and those foundational lessons in medicine making and herbal actions still resonante through my practice today. At 24 I got the honor to live with an amazing medicine maker and study at home every day, the lessons entered my body through my hands doing the work and my mind understanding the plant’s jobs.
