The studio is located on site Wild Ginger Herbal Center in a seperate but attached studio off of the main farm house. The site is very quiet for most of the year, however during four to five months a year we run our herbal school of the land and students come on weekends mostly and have classes in our outdoor gardens as well as classroom out in the outbuilding. This is a rustic space, without any kinds of frills and someone coming to live here must understand this simple country lifestyle.

Wild Ginger Herbal Center Its a very peaceful environment, relaxed, occasionally hosting camp fires or potlucks for local friends etc. While the farm open to the public during class times, it is often very quiet, especially during the winter season when we do not hold classes or public programs. Classes and visitors never enter the the rental unit, which is residents private home space. Our peaceful homestead about 45 minutes south of DC in Bryans Road, MD, we have fruit trees, herb gardens, lots of peace and quiet and more. It's a peaceful sanctuary not too far outside of the city. There is a commuter bus a short drive away that goes directly into DC. We're located very close to the Potomac River, and are adjacent to a 5000 acre national park as well as several state parks with hiking trails, organic farm, fishing pier, and more. It is a very easy commute for work or school to DC, Waldorf, La Plata, etc.
