The last in our series, Montana Herbal Festival is excited to bring the Wild Wanders back for one more hands on workshop!

Join Cathryn and Sydney of Wild Wanders as they take you through the process of making a medicinal salve with one of their favorite plant friends: Cottonwood Poplar! We will make a salve together using pre-infused oil AND craft our own cottonwood bud oil with freshly foraged buds. They will talk about the many powerful actions and applications of poplar (and why you want it in your medicine cabinet), how to go about finding and harvesting with care and intention, and offer some tips from experience on how to create long-lasting and medicinally potent oil. You will leave with knowledge and resources on sourcing quality ingredients locally, including the difference between pure essential oils and fragrance oils, as well as how to formulate the salve of your dreams. Everyone will leave with 2oz of salve and a half pint of infused oil; tins and jars will be provided.
