Let’s design your custom
workshop experience!

Step into a crafting experience where traditional methods meet mindful ingredients. In our soap workshops, you'll create 10 bars of luxury artisan soap from scratch, using herb-infused oils and pure essential oils. Choose your track: rich, old-fashioned tallow soap, or a thoughtfully balanced vegetable-blend soap crafted for vegetarian and vegan participants. We never host tallow and vegan sessions on the same day, so there's complete peace of mind about cross-contamination.
Our tallow is rendered in-house from a local Sudbury farm, and our botanical infusions feature herbs we grow ourselves, wild-forage, or source from nearby growers.
Or bring your friends and family for one of our botanically inspired herbal crafts, firestarters, "Hag candles", magnesium sprays, face masks, lip balms, and so much more, all celebrating the beautiful things we can find in our own backyard. Participant age starts at 12, however, if you are a Parent, you can bring your little ones with you at your own risk.
Every workshop includes guided instruction, all supplies, and the freedom to make the project your own, and you take home everything you make.
