Making herbal crafts is a fun and easy hobby to dive into. In this workshop, you will learn how to make herbal salves and balms, using commonly available garden herbs.
A few herbs we will be using include Calendula, Comfrey, and St. John's wort. Participants will leave with the tools to create their own herbal ointments, and become familiar with ways to incorporate them into their daily lives.
Class fee includes an herbal salve and lip balms to take home. We will also be serving a refreshing summer beverage.
