Workshop details
Learn how to harness the natural healing properties of herbs & tallow in our hands-on wild ingredient body product workshop.
This is a really special workshop to me that has been months in the making. Foraging, drying, processing, cold-pressing, and storing local wild ingredients, many of which require miles of walking to find, depending on the weather/abundance (or lack of!) this growing season may only be ethically harvested in small quantities or be difficult to extract large amounts of finished product from, making them very precious indeed and 100% wild!
As a participant in the Wildbiome Project 2025, where I will be eating only wild ingredients for a period of three months, I decided to go one step further and use only wild ingredients to make my own body care products – and now I’d like to share my recipes with you!
In this interactive session, you’ll discover how to make soaps, balms, hair rinses, remedies, other body product and first aid preparations using not just natural ingredients, but wild ones. This means that they have not been cultivated, chemically treated, or otherwise had the hand of human interference play a part in their lifecycle. These ingredients have been ethically and sustainably sourced by foraging.
Our expert herbalist will guide you through the crafting process, empowering you to care for yourself and your loved ones with simple, effective products made from nature. Perfect for beginners and nature enthusiasts alike, this workshop will reconnect you with the ancient wisdom of working with wild herbs and tallow.
Don’t worry if you’re not an expert forager! I will include more common natural ingredient alternatives and a PDF that covers easily accessible natural ingredients.
Please note that the workshop will include ethically and sustainably sourced animal products (deer tallow). For vegetarian and vegan options, please see my other herbal preparations workshops.
You’ll also receive a free PDF handbook that covers everything from the wild ingredient session as well as a natural herbal product handbook that makes similar products from 100% natural but more easily sourced ingredients.
