Tincture Making Skills: Techniques for High-Quality Extracts

July 20, 2025 @ 3:00 pm – 5:30 pm EDT

Herbs are very effective as medicine, and in order to get results you need to have excellent preparations. However, not all herbal extracts are created equal! Method matters a lot in the way that tinctures are created, and has a big impact on their effectiveness.

Prepare for summer by learning the skills you need to make high-quality tinctures at home. I’ll teach you some tricks for making complicated methods easy, and the best techniques for specific plants. You will learn fresh and dry plant methods, and how to make consistent, potent tinctures that last. We will cover the tools you need for small, medium, and larger scale production, understanding weights and measures, and tincture making in the field. You’ll also learn some processing specifics for flowers, leaves, seeds, barks and roots.

Making high quality herbal medicines is accessible and fun, it just takes some know-how. It’s a critical skill for the aspiring or established herbalist, and one of the three cornerstones of any herbal practice. Learn from 30 years of experience, with step by step demonstration and lively discussion. Worksheets and handouts will be included.

If you want to build confidence in your medicine making skills, I hope you’ll join us for this fun series!
