Edible & Medicinal Plants

At Cotef we learn about the amazing world of edible and medicinal plants. We teach which plants can be eaten and which can heal us.

But we always encourage people to look deeper at our brothers and sisters, to communicate with them and to learn from them. We hope to share that a plant has just as much life as an animal and that our role as caretaker demands that we treat them with respect and love.

It's amazing learning that plants that we consider 'weeds' can provide us with more nutrition that many foods from grocery stores.
