September's Herbal Circle featuring Chicory

Join us Sunday, Sept. 28, 12-3pm.  

🍂 September Herbal Circle: Chicory Magic for Autumn Wellness 🌿

As the seasons shift and the air turns crisp, we invite you to gather with us for our September Herbal Circle — a cosy and hands-on session celebrating the earthy, grounding power of chicory root.

💚 Why Chicory?

Traditionally used to support digestion, liver function, and overall vitality, chicory root offers gentle, earthy support for the seasonal shift. It’s a beautiful ally for grounding, especially as we head into Vata season (according to Ayurvedic wisdom).

Whether you’re curious about herbal coffee alternatives, or looking to support your digestion as we move into autumn, this circle is all about nourishment, connection, and creativity.

🌱 What We’ll Be Exploring:

In this intimate circle, you’ll get to roll up your sleeves and create a variety of chicory-infused recipes to bring warmth and balance to your daily routine:

☕ Herbal Coffee Alternative

Learn how to brew a delicious, caffeine-free chicory root blend that’s rich, grounding, and satisfying.

🍫 Chicory Hot Chocolate Elixir

We’ll combine roasted chicory with warming spices and cacao for a comforting, gut-friendly treat.

🍓 Chicory Smoothie Creations

Yes, chicory in smoothies! Discover how to incorporate this underrated root into creamy blends that support digestion and taste divine.

🍬 Chicory Energy Balls

You’ll mix up nourishing, no-bake balls with chicory, dates, seeds, and spices, perfect for busy days and lunchbox snacks.

🌼 Oxymel for Gut Support

We’ll make a traditional herbal oxymel (vinegar + honey infusion) featuring chicory and gentle digestive herbs, perfect for autumn transitions.
