At my home; Catherine Street, Burlington, VT

Join me for a hands-on workshop making tinctures from fresh and dried wild medicinal plants sourced locally. I will provide the plant materials and the alcohol tincture base, and we will prepare the plants and make the tinctures together. You will receive a detailed chart listing medicinal plants and their tincturing requirements. (Dried vs Fresh, best solvent, alcohol %, etc). We will also discuss tincture usage, dosage, and storage. You will go home with a 4 oz. jar of the actively-extracting tincture of your choice. We will also cover other plant preservation and storage methods including simple techniques for drying your own herbs for teas and culinary use.

Register early; Class size limited to 8 participants.
Workshop fee is $25. (includes $5. materials fee.)
