About this Event
Want to start making your own herbal medicine? One of the most common herbal preparations is a tincture, which is most commonly defined as an alcohol-based extraction of a plant. In this class we will go in depth about what makes a tincture, how to figure out dosages, which plants you should and should not tincture, who shouldn’t take a tincture, and more! We will be preparing fresh plant tinctures in two methods: the folk method and the calculation method.
This is a great class for absolute beginners who are ready to start getting hands on experience making their own herbal concoctions. What we learn in this class will set up a great foundation for any budding herbalist to explore herbal knowledge and craft.
