Agua Florida: An Infusion of Botanical Essences

Medicine Making Workshop Learn the process of preparing agua florida infused with medicinal flowers, herbs, citrus and other aromatic botanicals. Together, we will explore the cultural roots of this traditional medicine while honoring the wisdom of our plant relatives and the healing practices carried through generations. Walk away with your own bottle, set with intention and prayer, to use for cleansing, grounding, protection, and renewal.
