Ethnobotany explores the relationship between people and plants, tracing how different cultures have historically used native plants for healing and daily life. Salve-making, a tradition rooted in this rich history, involves crafting soothing remedies from these plants, blending ancient knowledge with modern practices to create natural solutions for wellness.
Learn some the very basics of making healing salves with native plants in our hands-on workshop.
