Distilling Herbs: Make Essential Oils & Hydrosols

  • Hollie's Homegrown @ Rodgers Ranch 315 Cortsen Road Pleasant Hill, CA, 94523 United States (map)

4:00pm class

Did you ever wonder how essential oils and hydrosols were made? It’s a thousand-year-old distilling process used by many cultures to make a highly concentrated extract of the scented resin we call “essential oil”. Hydrosol is the gently fragrant distilled water that is also produced in the distillation process and wonderful for your skin.

Join us as we fire up our very special copper still, handmade in Ukraine. Follow Hollie step-by-step, as you’ll learn how to set up, add the organic herbs and flowers, then make your own hydrosol and essential oils all while learning their properties and benefits. Participants will take fresh spray bottle of hydrosol home, which makes a wonderful face toner, room spray or fabric freshener.

All materials included. $48 per person. Reserve your spot here!
