Join JACCC and Sustainable Little Tokyo for an immersive, hands-on workshop where you'll explore the art of crafting botanical tinctures using Japanese loquat leaves and aromatic pine needles. Experience their unique scents, learn how to safely apply them to your skin, and create your personalized tinctures to take home. Along the way, you'll gain insight into the numerous benefits and traditional uses of these plants, while also mastering techniques that will empower you to make tinctures with herbs from your own garden.
