Medicine Making in the Garden
Date: Saturday, October 19th
Time: 11am - 1pm
Using medicinal plants + kitchen medicine, we’ll create two herbal preparations for the colder months:
𖦹 Fire Cider — a spicy tonic traditionally used as an immune booster, digestive aid, and cold/flu remedy during the winter months
𖦹 Herbal Respiratory salve — using herbs for lung support that are known for aiding breathing, chest congestion and supporting cold/flu symptoms
There will be tea to ground us into the energy of the season, as we learn about the benefits of the herbs we work with and share stories of traditional folk medicine, on a cozy October morning.
There will be plenty of herbs + spices to taste, smell, touch. Each person will go home with a jar of fire cider, a medicinal salve and a growing relationship with the wisdom of plants.
*This workshop is for ages 21+
*Refunds are not available for our workshops, but please email Rachael@RisingIrisFarm.com if something comes up and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

Deeper benefits: skin and sensory
Bright Botanical Butter was created as a soothing daily all-over moisturizer to bring lasting comfort to dry or weather-worn skin. The texture is rich but never heavy, melting instantly to deliver deep hydration and a soft, healthy glow.
Made with farm-grown and thoughtfully chosen botanicals, it smooths roughness, relieves dryness, and helps skin feel calm, nourished, and balanced. Antioxidant-rich oils protect against everyday stressors while restoring a soft, even texture.
The gentle citrus-floral aroma adds a touch of daily luxury, turning a simple step into a small act of care.
What you’ll notice:
- Skin feels hydrated, soothed, and comfortable after the first use
- Over time, skin looks smoother, more even, and radiant
- Absorbs quickly, leaving a soft, luminous finish without any greasiness
Simple, botanical, and made to help your skin feel cared for in every season.
