Join us for a cozy, hands-on workshop where you’ll learn how to make your own herbal salve from start to finish. This small gathering is designed for anyone curious about herbalism, natural skincare, or simple home apothecary skills. No experience needed — just a willingness to learn, explore, and enjoy the process.
Together, we’ll work with one of herbalism’s most time‑honored first-aid plants: Yarrow. Long respected for its traditional use in supporting skin integrity, soothing minor scrapes, and tending to life’s little bumps, yarrow is a beloved ally for home herbalists. You’ll learn how to identify it, how to harvest it ethically, and how to transform its aromatic aerial parts into a richly infused oil. From there, we’ll walk step-by-step through creating a salve you can confidently recreate at home.
How to identify and ethically harvest yarrow
Traditional uses and herbal qualities of yarrow
Proper drying and preparation techniques
How to make a yarrow‑infused oil
How to turn infused oils into salves
Tips for customizing salves for your family’s needs
Each participant will leave with:
A freshly made 1 oz tin of yarrow salve
A printed recipe + instructions
A deeper understanding of one of herbalism’s most trusted skin-supportive plants
This gathering is intentionally capped at 12 participants to keep the experience personal, supportive, and hands-on. You’ll have plenty of space to ask questions, connect, and truly learn the craft. It’s a perfect workshop for beginners, makers, gardeners, parents, and anyone wanting to bring more natural care into their home.
