What to expect

Join me in the Medicine Wheel gardens as we explore seasonal plant allies and the medicine they carry.

We will start with a smoke cleansing and introductions. We will then go down to the medicine wheel garden and harvest plants for the smoke bundle. I will teach and guide you in ways to harvest plants sustainably and with an earth-honoring mindset.

We will then come back upstairs into the learning space and learn about the plants we harvested as we make our smoke bundles.

We will be exploring themes such as:

Plants and their ancient ritual and ceremonial uses in various cultures around the world.

Sustainable, ethical harvesting and bioregional, place-based alternatives to over-harvested plants.

Offerings according to lineages, ancestors as well as the land we are harvesting from and more.

We will intentionally create fresh smoke bundles. I will provide instructions, string and a charm for you to create your smoke bundle.

We will further discuss ways we may benefit from the medicine of the sacred plants for cleansing, purification, protection & more.

We’ll conclude with a tea ceremony with delicious seasonal herbs from the garden.
