Ukraine Herbal Solidarity is a grassroots response to the invasion of Ukraine initiated by Solidarity Apothecary. The campaign is being organised with No Borders Warsaw, Operation Solidarity and others on the ground across Europe. They are organising a herbal medicine tent at the Medyka Border Crossing in Poland with a team of Ukrainian and international herbalists and interpreters. The plan is to offer a welcoming space offering herbal medicine for immune support, stress support and COVID 19 support. Safe stock medicines and herbal teas will be given freely to anyone interested. This builds on the incredible work and experience that Solidarity Apothecary and Herbalists Without Borders have from their regular mobile clinics supporting refugees in Calais and Dunkirk since 2019. All proceeds will go towards making herbal medicines to support frontline organisers and refugees.

“Thank you for another wonderful workshop yesterday about harvesting and using herbs for remedies. Very interesting and informative . I went out on my first forage today and collected some nettles which I put into an omelette and made some tea. Very tasty”
