What will we do?

We invite you to participate in a workshop full of aromas, history, and tradition , where you'll learn how to prepare traditional Canary Islands infusions, just like our grandmothers did.

We'll begin with an introduction to the most widely used medicinal and aromatic plants in Canarian folk tradition, many of which are collected from the wild and used for generations to relieve ailments, provide relaxation, or simply to share with family. You'll discover their properties, uses , and how to combine them to create balanced, comforting, and meaningful infusions.

After the explanation, we'll move on to the practical part, where you'll create your own personalized blend, prepare your infusion, and enjoy it in a moment of calm, connection, and flavor.

A workshop to honor ancestral wisdom, reconnect with simplicity, and take with you a small ritual filled with well-being and memory.

What's included?

Small booklet with recipes and properties.

Fun Fact

In many traditional homes in the Canary Islands, it was customary to always keep a sprig of pennyroyal hanging in the kitchen or at the entrance. Not only was it used to prepare digestive infusions, but it was also believed to ward off evil spirits and protect the home.

An infusion and an amulet, all in one!

These beliefs and practices reflect how, beyond their medicinal value, infusions were (and are) also carriers of culture, spirituality, and connection to the earth.
