The transition of seasons, specifically summer into fall, can leave our skin with many irritations including dryness, cracking, or sun damage. Fortunately, we can rely on herbs and infused oils to act as soothing and moisturizing topical aids. From dry skin to rashes, cuts, scrapes, bruises, and wrinkles, herbal balms and salves can serve as an amazing remedy to heal and rejuvenate the skin throughout all the seasons! Join resident Herbalist Emily Berg to find out more about the benefits of topical herbs, and their healing abilities. Come learn about which herbs and oils are beneficial for skin care, and which unique formulation is right for you! Participants will get to create their own all-natural, organic skin salve to take home.
