About your trip

Beautiful radiant skin is the natural expression of a well cared for body and a quiet balanced mind. Come and join us for a weekend of loving herbal Skin and Self care at a blooming medicinal herb farm in upstate NY.

Learn how to pamper yourself with the gentle support of herbal remedies and home made botanical skin care. We will harvest fresh herbs from our beautiful garden and make detoxing and calming teas, infuse medicinal plants in herbal oils and create a deeply healing massage oil. Learn how to make your own personal healing balm and whip up a luxurious moisturizer.

Get to know plant allies that soothe and nourish the nervous system, calm the mind and let us rest deeply. Learn about herbs and foods that help detox the body and let your skin shine. Give your lymph a gentle massage and feel the flow return. Hydrate with herb infused waters. Indulge in a lavish herbal facial treatment. Float in our swimming ponds and watch the clouds go by. LOVE your Self and soak your feet in flower petals.
