Upcoming events at Cyherbia:

Saturday the 27^th & Sunday the 28^th of September:  Lemon Verbena Days. 

During this first mini-fest we will focus on the wonderfully refreshing Lemon Verbena, a favourite herb for many. You will be able to try ice tea, liqueur, snacks, sorbet and ice cream, all made with lemon verbena.

In the tea room there will be food and cakes on offer, made with lemon verbena and a craft workshop: making a fragrant lemon verbena wreath for the home.

I will do a talk about the benefits and uses of lemon verbena, and written information about the plant’s benefits as well as yummy recipes will be given out. Normal entrance fees and opening times apply. The herb garden will be open from 9 until 6, so pop in any time during the day.

The talk will be at 11 am and 4 pm on both days.

The wreath making workshop will be held at 11.30 am on both days. To sign up for the workshop please email miranda@cyherbia.com or call 99915443 to book your place.  Price of the workshop including all materials is 18 euros. 

For lunch our kitchen goddess Lisa will make  very special dishes with… you guessed it! Lemon verbena. Lunch bookings can be made via email or phone. More information in our next newsletter.

Saturday October 11^th : Make your own herbal tea blend workshop.

The taste of a herb tells us a lot about its action. Herbs can be either cooling or warming, drying or moistening, relaxing or invigorating. During this practical workshop we will taste and explore the actions of a selection of herbs, and how to choose the herbs for your specific needs. Each participant will make their own personal tea blend to take home. Cost of the workshop including all materials is 15 euros p.p.

We will start at 11.30 and expect to finish around 1 pm.

Saturday October 25th & Sunday the 26th: Halloween!

This year the event will have a Wonderland theme. Parents and children are invited to jump down the rabbit hole and experience a day of fantasy, excitement, challenges and quests! Special games and activities for all age groups will make this an unforgettable experience for the whole family, unique in Cyprus! Games and activities will be ongoing all day from 10 till 6.
