A new exhibit at the Leaf explores the magical powers of herbs and botanicals. The exhibit, titled Nature’s Apothecary, allows visitors to learn more about traditional plant knowledge and how dried botanicals, herbs, teas and herbal extracts have been used for well-being, ritual and remedy through the years. The exhibit, which features dried flowers and herbs grown in Assiniboine Park’s gardens, runs until March 22.
