Herbal Medicine Making and Formulation

April 28 from 10 am – 2 pm

This class is for those that would like to develop and deepen their confidence with herbal medicine making skills.  Class will be hands-on and experiential so that each student will gain experience in the preparation process. 

The class will teach you how to craft herbal formulas for yourselves, your friends and family. It’s also an excellent class if you desire to have a herbal product business. We will design products from concept to learning how to test out your formulation to fine tuning the herbal remedy you desire to create.

Preparations will include preparing teas, fresh and dried plant tinctures, syrups and salves. Students will be able to take home creations that we prepare in class. 

The class is suited for total beginner to intermediate students.  No prior experience is needed. 

Instructor
The course is led by Leslie Lekos, director of Wildroot Botanicals

Being Prepared for the Weather

We will be outside at our harvesting sites rain or shine.  It is important to always come to class prepared to be outside.  Good walking shoes are important as well as layers and rain gear for cold weather months.  Sun block and hats are important for summer months.  It can also be useful to bring something to sit on and a water bottle for the day.

Cost
$75

Adverse Conditions

Please note that if there are events beyond our control, such as illness, forest fire smoke, or extreme weather that compromise student safety then the school may reschedule a class to another date.

COVID-19 Safety

If you have been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID or have any symptoms, please refrain from attending class and consult your healthcare provider.
