The Farms: Make Your Own Incense

Experience Level: Beginner

Incense isn’t just about sweet smells! Experience the various joys and uses of incense at Make Your Own Incense on Thursday, April 16 from 6 to 8 p.m. in The Studio.

Instructor Charlie Rainbow Wolf will walk students through making incense in a very hands-on way, covering suitable plants for incense, how to grow and gather them and using incense for different purposes — spiritual connection, inner peace, moon phases, bug repellant, etc.

Students will make their own incense from a selection of herbs to promote a specific purpose or to make a seasonal blend. Each student will go home with their own incense and helpful resources to continue making more at home.

$60/person*. Register here. Registration will close April 9 or when capacity is reached. All sales are final.

*Students should bring a half-pint glass jar or similar container.

About the instructor

Charlie Rainbow Wolf describes herself as an “old hippie” who has studied the “weird ways of the world for nearly 50 years.” She is happiest with her hands in the mud, either making pottery in her ‘artbox’ or tending things in her ‘yarden’ (yard + garden).

Astrology, tarot and herbs are Charlie’s greatest interests, but she has dabbled in most metaphysical topics in the last five decades — because life always has something new to offer.

She is a contributing author for Llewellyn Worldwide, is a ghostwriter for renowned psychic celebrities, and makes a wicked batch of fudge! Charlie lives in central Illinois with her very patient husband and special needs Great Danes.

About The Farms

The Farms: An Allerton Folk School, offers classes, workshops, and gatherings focusing on art, outdoor education, science, storytelling, and wellness. All experiences value hands-on, experiential teaching and learning, and are facilitated by and for the members of the community.
