How You Can Help

Last weekend I set up at Flea Off Market, and what a GREAT response I got! I shared our mission with so many people and many wanted to know how they could help. I thought I would share what I asked of them:

• FOLLOW & SHARE! Share our website and social media accounts. The more followers we have, the broader our reach will be. Make sure you are engaging with social media posts as well.  
• Join Herbalists Without Borders. We are a membership organization, and your membership helps fund the many programs HWB offers.
• Join our email list, which you can do right over there ------->>>
• Volunteer with us. Come work a pop-up with me. Medicine-making events (coming soon). These will be great learning opportunities. We could use a few people to take some of our cards and flyers around to area businesses, restaurants, and coffee shops. Help with a clinic (coming soon). For the clinic, we will need holistic practitioners and general volunteers to help.
• 
  Donate. To get our first clinic up and going, along with our other projects like wellness kits, we will need cash donations and items on our wishlist. All donations, both in-kind and monetary, are tax-deductible. You will get some seeds from our Seed Library to add to your garden if you donate. I just sorted seeds into nearly 150 packs, and I'm not done yet!
  
• Come to a donation-based workshop. Another learning opportunity and a way to help support the mission. 

However you choose to engage with us will always be greatly appreciated! 

One of my goals for the chapter is to become an educational resource for you. Starting in July, I will select an Herb of the Month, which will be helpful for the current season and easily accessible. There will be various information on the blog, sent in our monthly email, and hopefully, some hands-on learning opportunities at the bi-monthly Chapter meetings. The monthly mail goes out on the 10th. While there is no Herb of the Month in June, there will be some handy tidbits for the summer heat. I am really close to announcing the date of our very first clinic, medicine-making opportunities, and workshops. So be sure to get on that email list! 

This weekend I will be at the Douglass Loop Farmers' Market on Saturday and the new Riverside Farmers' Market at Farnsley Moremen Landing. If you have any questions, shoot me an email at HWBLouisvilleCoordinator@gmail.com.
