The Medicine Makers Series

This 7-Class Series teaches you exactly how to create potent herbal medicine at home. If a medicine cabinet filled with medicinal tinctures, soothing oils, first-aid salves, kid-friendly syrups, and heart opening flower essences sounds like a dream come true…join us! We can’t wait to create with you.

With each class purchase you’ll receive detailed handouts and class recordings. You can also add on class materials to your purchase if you need to stock up bottles, jars, beeswax, etc.

Double Extraction Tincture Method

Creating a liquid extract from medicinal mushrooms often benefits from a 2-step process to extract the water and alcohol soluble constituents from the mushrooms. If you’re already familiar with tincture making, this class will take your skill level up a notch and allow you to create potent tinctures from mushrooms like reishi and lion’s mane. We’ll cover:

  • Why this double extraction process allows you to extract the most medicinal compounds from your mushrooms

  • Clear, step-by-step instructions and tips to give you the confidence to make your own mushroom tinctures
