About this event
at
Applying herbs topically, as infused oils or salves, is one of the many ways we can utilize herbs for health and healing. We will discuss several methods of extracting herbs in oil and how to do so, including a demonstration preparing an herb for oil extraction. These infused herbal oils can be used as is, or made into healing herbal salves. We will collectively make an herbal salve in class, and each attendee will take home a container of salve made in the class.
The workshop would entail:
-Small Plant ID Walk and discussion in EcoVillage Learning Garden (weather permitting)
-Rules on Harvesting Sustainably and at peak potency
-Oils/Salve making class & notes -Hands on – each attendee will take home a jar of salve made in class. Note- depending on weather and availability of herbs, plant material for salve making will either be supplied by I-TAL Acres or we will harvest them onsite as needed. -Demonstration of how to make an infused herbal oil.
-Info on how to make tinctures.
Please bring sunglasses/hat/sunscreen as we will be outside at least part of the time
