Winter brings with it cold, dry air that can leave your hands, elbows, and heels needing help and what better way to take care of them than with a salve you make and scent yourself! In this make-and take workshop plant educator, Iris Weaver will teach us about oils and herbs that soothe and leave with a salve that will help you make it through the long winter. We will discuss herbs, infused and essential oils, and the salve-making techniques. You’ll be able to scent your own salve to take home with your choice of several essential oils. A comprehensive handout is included, so you can make your own salves at home. All materials included.

Iris Weaver, is a local herbalist and plant educator who is passionate about the plants that grow around us, both wild and cultivated, that can be used for food and medicine.
