Small sketchbook, pencils, beeswax, small electric pot for melting wax, glycerine, apple cider vinegar, 1 gallon of white vinegar, small jars and bottles like the ones that come in air travel kits, 2 large 1 qt jars with lids, 1/2 gallon pitcher, access to a stove and a 2 qt pan,  cinnamon sticks- food grade, a set of measuring cups and measuring spoons, old newspapers or an old shower curtain to protect surfaces, a sharp knife and cutting board. Additional materials may be required and will be listed on a handout the first day of class. 

Students will need to be able to handle a kitchen knife and shears safely. I recommend a small electric crockpot (1 qt) the kind used for potpourri or lunches for melting wax. This is a safer than using the stove. However, if you choose to allow your student to use the stove and a pot to melt wax in, be sure they know how to  do so safely. A parent should be available to assist the student when using the stove. Students will use the stove to boil water. I recommend a tea kettle for boiling water. It can be difficult to pour water from an open pot. 
I am not a doctor or a nurse. I am an herbalist. As such I do not diagnose illness, nor do I make recommendations for use of herbs as healing agents. Our class discussions will center around traditional folklore. I will stress to students the importance of positive identification of any plant they intend to use for any purpose. The plants chosen for this class are easy to identify, non-toxic, easy to find and useful for may things other than just medicinal purposes. We will be concentrating on non-medicinal herb use.
