Rowan Evans

Rowan Evans is a certified herbalist who welcomes, harvests, and turns into medicine, more than 50 medicinal plants that grow on her 1 ½ acre property in Licking County, Ohio.  Rowan draws on her education in both fine arts and landscape architecture to add to her devotion to  clean, whole foods and joyful, respectful participation in close-to-the-earth living. Rowan serves as the community liaison at a 100-acre organic farm in northern Franklin County, OH where she both develops education and outreach programming related to the mission of the farm and teaches many of the herb and cooking classes that are offered there.  

Rowan continues down the learning path by teaching and has been most grateful for the influence and mentoring of plant relationship visionaries Stephen Harrod Buhner, Maechelle Small Wright, Rosemary Gladstar and Dawn Combs, the central Ohio herbalist under whom she apprenticed. 

Most days during the spring, summer and fall you can find her outdoors with dirt under her fingernails, perhaps a sketchbook in her hip pocket, a straw hat on her head ---  husband, Joe, and cats, Mina and Peggy Sue, along with birds, bugs, and nightcrawlers round out a long list of blessings.

Workshop #1: PLANT MEDICINE, Tinctures and Salves 101
   In temperate climates where many plants die back or are dormant for part of the year, tinctures and salves are the foundation of a vibrant home apothecary  They go a long way to assure long-term, effective, and travel-friendly solutions by storing the health-supporting energy of just-picked medicinal herbs.  You’re invited to learn just how easy it is to master these two methods, both true DIY projects.  Don’t be surprised if you are hooked once you try this and start concocting and customizing like an old pro completely turning the “don’t try this at home” warning on its head.  Your friends will love being part of your R&D.

Workshop #2: Growing Medicinal Herbs
   Most medicinal herbs have a reputation for being uncomplaining and resilient in regard to their minimal needs during their growth cycle. But when we intentionally invite them into our world by planting, or they slip in seed-wise on a breeze or the beak of a bird, we can do much more than provide only the most basic care. By learning a bit about an herb’s native environment, the intention to provide its optimal conditions follows and the “medicine”, which includes the relationship between the human and the plant, increases in potency.   In this workshop, using as examples a half-dozen or so common but very generous medicinal herbs you can probably grow successfully in your back yard , we’ll explore water, soil, light and other requirements throughout the life cycle of the herbs.    
NOTE: This workshop fits nicely with “Tinctures and Salves” as back-to-back workshops but can also be enjoyed as a stand-alone program.
