In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn about the significance of sweetgrass from an Indigenous perspective and explore its relationship to land, culture, and connection. Participants will also have the opportunity to create a sweetgrass infusion, which will later be strained and bottled to create a refreshing mist. All supplies will be provided. Registration is required.
