Art + The Forest Workshop: Crafting a Medicinal Salve

Infused oils are wonderful all by themselves for a wide range of use from massage to cooking but when you want to apply your oil topically sometimes you want something a little less… oily. In this workshop learn how to take your infused oil to the next level by making it into a salve. Salves are easy to transport and use and make a wonderful addition to your skill set.

Place: Wells Barkerville School field

Materials: Bring your infused oil if you made one otherwise materials will be provided. We have extra oil if anyone could not make it to our previous workshop.

Suggested Payment: $ 5.00

Space will be limited. Please register to secure your spot. Click here to register

Come join us for our forest workshop series every Saturday starting July 3rd and ending August 21. This workshop series will focus on exploring how people can engage with and harvest from the forest in an ethical and sustainable manner. Topics will range from plant id, to making medicinals, to willow basketry. We encourage any and all to join us with one caveat being that anyone under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult. Learn share and discover some of the ways that we can engage with the forest and the many ways it can help to support us and our communities.
