COSMETIC STUDENTS EXPLORE THE HUMBER ARBORETUM DURING A WORKSHOP

Students from the course Ethics and Sustainability for the Cosmetics Management Program took part in a workshop at the Arboretum led by Reid Williamson. The workshop provided students an experiential learning opportunity by connecting the flora of Ontario’s landscape to the world of cosmetology. Students learned to identify tree species on Humber campus, understand some of the medicinal benefits of various plants and had the opportunity to make their very own take-home salve. This was a great chance to get out of the classroom, enjoy the beautiful arboretum space and hear from a speaker who is passionate about herbalism.
