Thursday, February 7, 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm – Infused Oils for Healing

Join herbalist and educator Iris Weaver for a Boston Center for Adult Education class on Thursday, February 7 from 6 – 8. Herbally infused oils are key ingredients in many body care products. They can be really expensive to purchase, but are affordable and surprisingly easy to make on your own! In this class, we will learn about the wide selection of herbs and oils that you can use to make infused oils tailored to your own needs and tastes. We will also discuss the many products for which infused oils can be used. This class is especially helpful for people with sensitive skin and those looking to avoid synthetic chemicals in their skincare. Since these kinds of infused oils are used externally, we will only briefly touch on infused oils for cooking. You will put up a small jar of infused oil in class to take home with you. Handouts included. $59, plus a $5 materials fee. Register at https://bcae.org/product/infused-oils-for-healing-2-7-2019/
