Herbal Salves Made Simple: A Make & Take Workshop

In this fun, hands-on class, you’ll explore the art of crafting herbal salves using gentle, plant-infused oils—no essential oils or complicated steps, just time-honored herbal wisdom.

We’ll work with skin-loving herbs like Calendula (Calendula officinalis), Plantain (Plantago spp.), and Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) to create soothing balms perfect for everyday use—think mosquito bites, minor skin irritations, and dry patches. You’ll leave with your own handcrafted salve, the confidence to make more, and a deeper connection to the plants that support us.

Held indoors to beat the Texas heat. All supplies provided. Open to ages 18 and up. No prior experience needed—just a curious spirit and a love for nature.
