Workshops

Workshops are held in Vivian's home, and sessions include making: Herb bundles, infused oils, tinctures, salves, and personal products such as soap, chapstick, deodorant and dish soap.
All materials are provided, and participants make their own products to bring home during the workshop. If you are interested in attending or scheduling your own private/small group session specializing in a topic from the list below, please Contact Vivian.
