Free Virtual Workshop // Herbal Infused Oils, Stop and Smell the Roses and the Daisies too

Join us for the third weekly workshop, this time looking at herbal infused oils (part 1) and plant identification (part 2).

Explore the sensory world of botanically infused oils. We will cover infused oils for both internal and external use for health and cooking. Focusing in on Saint John’s Wort, Calendula, garlic and rosemary and looking at their medicinal qualities.

Would you like to improve your plant identification? Starting to understand botany, plant features and how to recognise plant families helps faster identification. In the world of ethnobotany (plants and their uses), knowing plant families can also help with exploring their uses. Join Kim for an introduction to 2 common British plant families that are vital to know when foraging for food and medicine, the Rosaceae (Rose) and Asteraceae (Daisy) families.
