Golden Magic: DIY Salves and Lip Balms with Calendula

A wealth of wellness can be found in Calendula, which is abundant in the Incredible Edible Gardens. In this workshop, Community Herbalist Jennifer May will share about Calendula as a plant with many wellness benefits. She will discuss how to harvest and dry calendula and the various forms and methods that can be used to work with it. There will be a hands-on demonstration where we will make calendula-infused oil and then turn that oil into salves and lip balms. Each guest will come away with some of what we make together. 

This workshop is open to teens 13+ and adults.
