Herbal Balm Workshop with Jane Wrigglesworth

Danielle Muller from Epsom Community Centre

Come along to our upcoming Herbal Balm Workshop with medical herbalist and author of The Everyday Herbalist, Jane Wrigglesworth!

You'll learn to make a soothing herbal balm for cuts, scrapes, and minor skin irritations. Using healing herbs like calendula, plantain, and chamomile, we'll guide you through the process of infusing oils, blending natural beeswax (or a vegan alternative), and creating a gentle, nourishing salve. Perfect for families, gardeners, and anyone looking to incorporate natural remedies into their daily routine.

✨ You'll leave with your own tin of balm and the confidence to make more at home! ✨

• Saturday 12 April
• 9.30-11am
• 1.5 hour workshop
• $25 per person

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
