Highlights
Outing Highlights
Pour, Scent and Personalize Your Own Citronella Candle
Guided by an experienced instructor, you pour candles into tins and personalize them with essential oils, botanicals and bright citrus notes such as lemon and orange, creating a finished citronella candle designed to help repel insects naturally.
Natural Bug‑Off Spray Without Harsh Chemicals
In addition to the candle, the workshop walks you through making a plant‑based ‘Bug Off’ spray or roller using essential oils and natural ingredients that help deter insects without resorting to harsh chemical repellents.
A Relaxed, BYOB Social with Baby Animal Cuddles
The session is intentionally social and low‑pressure: bring a beverage if you like, enjoy the company of fellow participants, and pause for sweet cuddle time with kittens and other farm friends during the class.
