Turmeric has steadily been building in popularity over recent years due to its amazing health attributes—especially its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a member of the Zingiberaceae family and an exotic tropical herb that we love to grow and use. In this webinar, we will share our experience cultivating and harvesting turmeric, preserving and cooking with these amazing, colorful and flavorful rhizomes, as well as some of our favorite remedies and recipes.

Turmeric owes much of its biological and chemical identity to curcumin, a naturally occurring polyphenol that serves as the plant's primary active compound. This potent substance is widely recognized for its robust antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which have made it a focal point for modern medical research. Scientists are currently investigating curcumin's potential benefits for a wide range of conditions, including arthritis, metabolic syndrome, anxiety, and even kidney health. By
