South Lake Tahoe Incense-Making Workshop

Make a fragrant keepsake from the plants of Lake Tahoe in this hands-on South Lake Tahoe incense-making workshop. Using natural pine resin, aromatic herbs, flowers, and other botanicals, you’ll create incense from scratch without synthetic fragrance oils, charcoal, or artificial fillers.

Grind and blend the ingredients, then knead and hand-roll your incense as you learn about Sierra Nevada plants, traditional incense-making techniques, and how botanicals are harvested, prepared, and distilled for a small-batch apothecary. All materials are provided, and the workshop is suitable for all physical fitness levels. You’ll leave with your own handcrafted Tahoe incense and the know-how to make it again at home.

Meet your host at the corner of Mt. Rainer and Pyramid Circle in South Lake Tahoe, then walk just steps to the workshop. Arrive 5–10 minutes before the scheduled start. Choose this South Lake Tahoe incense-making workshop for a creative change of pace and a souvenir you made yourself.
