Come explore this emerging area of aromatherapy in which we learn about the therapeutic healing and cosmetic properties of hydrosols, as well as how to distill them. These water-based plant medicines are said to yield the "soul" of the plant. We will walk through a hydrosol distillation process on-site using a traditional copper still that is suitable for use on a stove top and using plants grown at Our Global Family Farm. Jean Johnson has been distilling plant hydrosols for over 15 years and finds them to have properties that synergistically combine the benefits of essential oils and teas, in a gentle format that is suitable for almost everyone.
Each attendee will also receive a bottle of hydrosol to take home.
