In this engaging and beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll learn how to:

Identify local medicinal herbs

Harvest plants ethically and responsibly

Understand their traditional uses

Katie will also lead a live salve-making demonstration, walking us through the full process of turning herbs into a soothing, skin-nourishing product you can use at home. From choosing the right herbs to infusing oils and blending ingredients, you’ll gain practical knowledge to start your own herbal journey.

What’s Included:

Live salve-making demonstration

Introduction to herbal identification & uses

📩 RSVP Required:If you plan to attend, please RSVP by May 1st by replying to petawawahorticulture@gmail.com so we can ensure we have enough materials prepared for the demonstration.
