Craft herbal magic with us as we learn about the art of plant distillation. Distillation is used to make essential oil and hydrosols. We will cover the process of making hydrosols, which are commonly used in skin care and have various uses in herbalism. Plant distillation is a way of capturing the essence of our terroir, as batches of hydrosol will chemically vary based on soil, rainfall, sun exposure, plant variety, health of the plant, and time of harvest of the plant used.

We will cover the basics from choosing your copper distiller, cleanliness, why choosing the right water source matters, plant harvesting, plant to water ratio, and the basic technique to make high quality hydrosols.

I am very excited to be offering this workshop and being able to teach this special craft. Herbal distillation is such as love of mine. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I think it’s the magic of fire, water, and air that come together to make a product that captures the essence of a plant, and the essence of the conditions under which this plant has grown and was harvested. This is a unique opportunity to learn

about herbal distillation and to craft a hydrosol with us. Distillation takes time and patience, as a result this workshop has a 4-hour duration time. Participants get to take home a bottle of hydrosol they made from the distillation process.
