Aromatic Arts - Herbal Infused Oils at RHS Hyde Hall

  • RHS Hyde Hall Creephedge Lane Chelmsford, England, CM3 8ET United Kingdom (map)

It’s high Summer, the sun energy is potent - if recent heatwaves are anything to go by - it’s an ideal opportunity for a lovely day of plant alchemy and potion making.

Join me at RHS Hyde Hall to deepen your understanding and connection to plants, and discover how to harness the therapeutic properties of popular herbs and aromatic plants through a long practised tradition of herbal infusion.

The immersive and practical one-day workshop is designed to equip you with the skills needed to craft natural, therapeutic herbal oils that contribute to your overall wellbeing and skincare needs.

This full guided session will be an enriching experience, where you actively participate in:

  • creating three infused herbal oils during the workshop:

  • understand their many uses and applications

  • explore how to incorporate them into balms and butters

You will leave with creative inspiration and knowledge to replicate and adapt recipes in the comfort of your home.

Throughout the workshop you will:

  • Acquire comprehensive insight into the diverse properties of aromatic herbs and flowers, gaining an understanding of the benefits they bring to your herbal infusions.

  • Learn the art of selecting optimal carrier oils, considering factors such as skin type, aroma and intended use

  • Explore versatile ways to integrate herbal-infused oils into your daily routine, encompassing skincare, self massage, cooking and aromatherapy.

  • Engage in discussion around safety, proper storage and sourcing ingredients.

Fee: £85.00

Fee includes all materials, workshop notes and your 3 infused herbal oils to take home*

*Please note the infused oils crafted during the workshop will require a 4-6 week infusion period at home before they are ready to use.
