Herbal Bug Sprays Class
Herbal Bug Sprays Class
Learn how to craft custom bug repellants from herbs found in your garden or local farmers market! This virtual class will cover skills including selecting herbs, working with carrier oils, using dried or fresh herbs to create bug sprays, and responsibly foraging wild herbs. This class will be taught by local herb enthusiast Annette Davis Campbell, a member of the local CU Herb Society. Class registration is free with an option to purchase a class kit to use during the live virtual class. This class will feature yarrow, lavender, catnip, basil, mint, and lemongrass with information provided on additional herbs. The $20 base class kit includes witch hazel distillate, 4 2 oz atomizer spray bottles, apricot kernel carrier oil, vegetable glycerin, plastic containers, and requires participants to source their own herbs from their garden or local farmer. There is also an option to select a $40 class kit that includes everything in the base class kit plus bundles of fresh and dried herbs that are featured in the class.
