SUMMARY:Lavender wand workshop
DESCRIPTION:Lavender wands – Saturday 1st August from 2 pm\, a peer-led gathering. \nWe’re always keen to close the circle on sowing\, growing and consuming as well as reducing\, reusing and spending less\, so this month we’re doing just that by reviving the forgotten art of the lavender wand.  Fresh lavender can be used to make an age-old solution to clothes moths\, while also perfuming your clothes and bed linen. No aerosols involved! See photo attached to get an idea of what they look like. \n  \nPlease bring some ribbon\, about 1.5 to 2m\, narrow ribbon is easier to weave than wide ribbon. People are usually happy to swap and share ribbons but besides that you won’t need anything else –
