Join us throughout the spring and summer for a class series focusing on homemade health and wellness items with author, teacher, and homesteader, Ashley English. For each class, Ashley will be bringing materials and demonstrating how to make each item. Several handouts will be given to attendees and they'll detail everything needed for creating the project at home. The class will take place on the 4th Wednesday of every month at 6 PM.
