Local Living Venture hosting workshop on home made herbal preparations planned for April 3 in Canton

Posted

CANTON -- Home Made Herbal Preparations is a "How To" workshop planned by the Local Living Venture on Sunday, April 3, from 2 until 3:30 p.m. in the community room of the Unitarian Universalist Church, 3 1/2 East Main St.

Three preparations will be shared and attendees will leave with samples of the concoctions, as well as the knowledge of how to make them at home themselves.

Many personal care and health products contain chemicals and additives that many people seek to move away from, especially with products that are applied directly to the skin. This workshop will demonstrate how to make lip balm.

Presenter Arielle Wolter will demonstrate three recipes that can then be made at home, experimenting with different scents and herbal combinations. Wolter is the owner of Arielle Acres, a 520 acre farm in Macomb. Arielle Acres features an apothecary, grows heritage breed livestock, has a vegetable garden and is striving towards the self sufficient lifestyle. Arielle is also the owner of Natures Birth Journey Doula and Apothecary Services which provides women's services and childbirth education.

The cost is $22 for general public and includes a materials fee for three herbal preparations that attendees will take home. There is a discount of $40 as a family rate for two people, and $10 student. Partial scholarships are available upon request.

To register, send an email to LocalLivingVenture@gmail.com or call 347-4223 to reserve a spot, noting the number in party, contact phone number and email address when reserving. Email confirmation will be sent to all registrants within 24-48 hours.
