We are all stewards of the land and we need our land and ourselves to be healthy.  It is time to focus on our local land, health and economy.  This includes recognizing the importance of our local medicinal plants by learning about them and using them.

After the lunch break (please bring a sack lunch) we will make herbal facial cleansing grains.  This is a versitle cleansing product; use as a daily wash/scrub or a weekly mask.  Another great gift idea, but you might want to keep this one for yourself!
