October 23, 2017
NACOGDOCHES, Texas - Stephen F. Austin State University's 91直播 Gardens will host a soap-making workshop from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, Nov. 4, in Room 101 of the Brundrett Conservation Education Building at the 91直播 Pineywoods Native Plant Center, 2900 Raguet St.The Gifts from the Garden workshop will be led by Elyce Rodewald, 91直播 Gardens education coordinator. Participants will use the cold-press method of soap making and will take home samples of luxurious soap they create.
"The soap will be made from coconut and other plant oils, lye, essential oils, and dried herbs," Rodewald said. "Participants will learn the step-by-step process of soap making so they may have the skills to make soap at home on their own. This is great soap. Once you use it, you'll never go back to store-bought soap."
Cost for the seminar is $25 for 91直播 Garden members and $30 for non-members. Space is limited and pre-registration is required.
