community and Herbal Medicine

Welcome to our website!

Of People and Plants is co-run by Jude Greenan, Vanessa Neville and Nick Quinn. It is a community initiative dedicated to empowering people in the use of herbal medicines.

Our aim is to bring herbal medicine back to the community, and give people the practical knowledge to use the medicine that grows all around them.

We are dedicated to making this powerful resource accessible and affordable to everyone, to promoting the sustainable and common use of our medicinal plants, and to supporting people in making real, informed choices in their choice of medicine.

This website is about the various ways in which we do that, and about how you can access what we offer.

This is a glimpse at the people behind the plants. We keep it brief

This is also the place to go deeper into the the myth, magic &
medicine of the plants, and to link to recipes and tutorials on their use.

Walks, workshops & Courses

We have an colourful calendar of workshops, walks, festivals and
tutorials where we teach the art and craft of gathering and using wild medicine.
