What: Summer Solstice Distillation

Location: TBA
Cost: $30
This workshop will be taught by two guess speakers, Kate and Katrina (members of the Fleur + Forage Crew). Learn how to distill hydrosols and essential oils using a copper still. The hydrosol is the water portion of a distillation. The hydrosol and essential oil distilled will be a representation of what is growing in Atlanta at the turning of the season. Each seasonal blend is unique which makes them extra special.
The money raised will go to support the the Fleur + Forage Free Clinic; 10% of the proceeds will be donated to @grow_a_row .
You can support the clinic monthly on Patreon and attend the seasonal distillations as part of you membership.
