Originally collected from the wild, the best plants were selected, cultivated and shared.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur medicinal garden at Babylonstoren includes a range of beautiful species – some more powerful, aromatic, rare or even dangerous than others but all with an interesting story worth discovering. The central layout of the garden follows the form of a body with herbs to heal from the head, heart, lungs, digestive system, organs, skin, bones and feet. The trees are some of the “giants” in African healing traditions. Herbs along the outer wall follow the seasons, summer to winter, specially selected to heal, soothe and balance the body through the time-honoured pleasure of tea. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe invite you to enjoy this healing garden as a quiet space, slowing down and blending herbal teas as guided by our gardener Gundula. Seated on the floor of the shaded bamboo gloriette, a selection of savoury and sweet confections is served to complement the infusions you create. Only fresh, seasonal ingredients are used and great care is taken in the preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the ultimate tickle, do not go before dipping your toes in the pond to experience the nibbling Garra rufa fish while reflecting on the moment and aiming to balance pleasure and health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTea rituals take place at 9h30 on Tuesdays. \u003cbr\u003eOur Healing Garden is a restful place for quiet reflection and tranquillity.
