Description

Hydrosols, sometimes called hydrolats, are the distilled extracts of plants. Learn how to make them using an alembic still. The scent of plants and flowers lures us and begs to be preserved for a multitude of healthful and delightful uses. Presented in the setting of a local herb farm, we'll go step by step through the process of distilling and creating floral waters using the beautiful plants on location. We'll talk about the many ways to create with hydrosols for beauty, health and culinary uses. You'll leave with a hand out, a sample of the hydrosol we create and the hands on knowledge to create your own hydrosols with confidence or just learn more about the process while having fun. This class is being taught on Duvall Herb Farm, who will have plants, flowers, veggies and herbs available to purchase fresh from the farm. Class is held outdoors so come prepared for the weather with shoes you can walk thru a field in, bring a chair if you would like to sit and a notebook if you'd like to take extra notes. Please, no dogs or small children for this class. Class is held outdoors where there is plenty of room to separate, but wear a mask if you are concerned. If you are feeling ill or recently diagnosed with an illness, please don't attend, we will be happy to refund you.
