Past event
May 20, 2018, 9 AM to 3 PM

Sunday, May 20, from 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. (Bring your own lunch.) — Gathering and processing local
forest products to create natural skin and hair products.
Winston-Prouty Center, 130 Austine Dr., Brattleboro, Vt.

Join herbalist Santalena Groves, Alchemist/Creator of Heart Grown Wild, LLC, an herbal skincare company based in Wardsboro, to take a deep dive into how essential oils are produced through live distillation of wild harvested plants. The purpose of the workshop is to educate attendees through a visual demonstration of the amount of plant material it takes to produce one drop of essential oil. Join us for a plant walk outside and learn first-hand how to make hydrosol and essential oil from start to finish.

Space is limited to 20 participants. The plant walk will take place in the woods behind Holton Hall. Expect about ¼ to ½ mile with hills and be prepared for rain, sun and ticks! We ask that you please leave your dog at home as they are not allowed in the building.
