Properties of beeswax, as well as other oils and butters, will be explained giving you the knowledge needed to design products to fit your needs. From lip balm and lotion to furniture polish and aftershave, this class will provide a list of options and you will be able to select the product you’d most like to make.

Beeswax for 1 product and learning materials will be supplied (local pick up), but you will need to purchase the remaining ingredients for the item(s) you select. Bring your video conferencing to the kitchen for this informational yet hands-on experience!

This course will be instructed by Lauren Anderson, science teacher, who manages the student-run apiary for Tacoma students, Bee 253 and owner of Calm+Confidence Beekeeping.
