Botanical Alchemy - September 26

September 26, 2026, 1:00-3:00pm

Herbs, flowers, roots, and a quiet afternoon to learn what they do together. You will build your own loose leaf blend from the jars in front of you and take it home to steep whenever you need it. All materials included, no experience necessary.

Step into the witch's apothecary and discover the art of transforming herbs, flowers, fruits and botanicals into a tea blend that is uniquely your own.

In this hands-on workshop you will explore the traditions, properties and possibilities hidden within the plants we brew. A variety of tea leaves, herbs, flowers and other ingredients will be provided, and we will explore both their herbal uses and traditional spiritual associations, from botanicals associated with calm, comfort and wellness to those connected with protection, intuition, love, prosperity and other intentions.

Choose your herbs. Set your intention. Create your brew.
