Description:
Come learn how to make your own healing oils and salves with local
Northwest plants. In class we will make an herbal salve effective for

enough olive oil to fill your jar.

Honey collection
On a HOT, hot day

While working the hives, we heard the huge KABOOM 2 times...
I was just thinking- ok-if this is it...I have some honey to eat before I go!

Serious gardeners flock to the Village Green Perennial Nursery—nearly two acres of eye-popping perennials planted behind owner Vera Johnson’s lime-green home—to find collector’s roses or native ground covers, while small-scale growers snatch up pansies and pretty plant pots.
