About the course

In this course we explore how you can make the most out of aromatic herbs growing in your own gardens and pots.  You will discover how you can use them and their essential oils to enhance your everyday health and wellbeing and how to use them in cooking. We will also make some home-made beauty and wellbeing preparations during the course for you to take home. We will cover ten different herbs over the day. A light lunch prepared with herbs will be available to share.
