Medicine of the Pines with Kat Mackinnon

Discover the potent medicinal properties of the pine family plants of Colorado, and learn how to transform these evergreens into a range of healing preparations.

In this hands-on class, we will explore the traditional and modern uses of pines, spruces, and firs, focusing on their anti-inflammatory, respiratory-supporting, and immune-boosting qualities. We’ll discuss identification and harvesting techniques, and explore the different benefits of teas, tinctures, syrups, salves, essential oils, and resins.

Participants will help make and take home:
- 1 oz of syrup
- 1 oz of tincture

Join Registered Herbalist Kat Mackinnon in an evening of understanding of these evergreen allies and making some delicious medicine.
