In this Village Vancouver workshop with Lori Snyder, you'll discover how to make beeswax salves with infused plant oils. It's quick and easy, and beeswax salves have many different applications, including lip balms, natural skin care, hand salves and salves for wounds and sprains. We'll have the community Seed Library present -- pick up some free seeds for your garden, swap or donate seeds.
