Natural Botanical Incense: Winter Scents for the Holidays

Create your own fragrant incense blend during this two-hour hands-on workshop led by Clare Reines, a horticulturist at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. You'll work with natural aromatic materials—resins, herbs, spices, oils, and woods—to design a custom winter scent. Whether you're drawn to the aroma of evergreens, warm spices, or woodsy notes, you'll leave with a finished incense blend ready to enjoy at home or wrap up as a gift. All materials and supplies are provided, so just bring your creativity. The workshop costs $62 for Garden members and $78 for non-members. Pre-registration through the website is required to secure your spot. If you need accessibility support or other accommodations to participate comfortably, reach out to the Garden ahead of time at the contact information provided, and they'll work with you to help.
