Taught by Machelle Christiansen

Discover some of the most loved herbs for tea and how to blend them into tasty and satisfying drinks for both health and enjoyment. We will cover several basic herbs, established blends, how to blend your own herbal teas, and other herbal beverages. You will leave with formulas, recipes, and confidence to play  with your own favorite herbs to find new ways to enjoy them.

Meet Your Instructor

Machelle has been interested in herbs ever since she can remember - when she learned that it actually meant something that Mrs. Bunny gave Peter Rabbit chamomile tea and sent him to bed! As she grew past the age of making “teas” in her Barbie swimming pool with whatever she found growing nearby, she began to study herbs and alternative healing modalities in earnest. This has led her on a nearly lifelong journey of learning folkways, studying with a wide variety of teachers, and personal exploration. Nowadays you can find her with a mug in hand helping out as an apprentice in the Village Apothecary and at home in her apothecary that also doubles as a studio for her fiber crafts.
