As the crisp autumn air moves in and the harvest season kicks into full gear, it’s the perfect time to bring sustainable habits into the kitchen! Join your neighbors for Eco-Friendly Kitchen: Handcrafted Beeswax Wraps. This is a fun, hands-on workshop where we learn to create custom, reusable food wraps that keep your favorite fall harvest fruits, vegetables, cheeses, and baked goods fresh without the plastic waste. Nothing brings a kitchen together like practical, beautiful, and self-made sustainable essentials for the changing seasons.

💡 Why You’ll Love It:
Craft & Create: Our instructor will guide you step-by-step through choosing your fabric, melting and applying the premium beeswax blend, and finishing your custom wraps. Registration includes approximately one “fat quarter” (18″ x 22″) of 100% cotton fabric, along with all the high-quality beeswax, pine rosin, and jojoba oil needed to bring it to life!
Versatile Food Storage: Depending on how you choose to cut your fabric, your fat quarter will yield 3 to 4 reusable wraps in a mix of custom sizes (such as one large 12″x12″ wrap to cover autumn baking dishes, two medium 10″x10″ wraps for harvest vegetables, or smaller snack sizes).
Go Green for Autumn: Learn the science behind why beeswax wraps are naturally antibacterial, washable, and completely compostable. You’ll take home a finished set of wraps that can be used for months—perfect for preserving seasonal leftovers or giving as a unique, early handmade holiday gift!
Cozy Crafting Atmosphere: Mingle with fellow DIY enthusiasts, swap sustainable living tips, and take home the skills to continue making your own beautiful food storage wraps at home.
Space is limited—register today to secure your crafting station and start your journey toward a zero-waste kitchen! Maximum 20 / minimum of 5 people.
Registration includes expert instruction, all crafting materials to create your own set of wraps, and take-home care guidelines.
