Historic Healing Herbs Demonstration

Join Dumbarton House and local soap maker, Amanda Frayer, for a demonstration and discussion of the healing properties of herbs! During this demonstration, Amanda will make a balm with herbs harvested from Dumbarton House’s 19th century herb garden and we will discuss how herbal remedies were used in the past and up to the modern day. Amanda will be selling her products, including her soaps, scrubs, and more, at the program as well. Each participant will take home a sample of the balm Amanda makes during the demonstration!
