About
Commune with the Plants
Learn to listen deeply, heighten your awareness, and tune into your senses. These tools will guide you into relationship with the plants that surround you no matter where you live or where your travels take you. The plants have much to share, all we need do is open our hearts and minds and meet them where they are. Communing with the plants provides a pathway to kinship with all of the natural world.
Learn how to work with the plants as food and medicine
Learn how to identify and harvest plants in the wild and cultivate medicinal herbs in your own backyard or on your kitchen windowsill. Discover the many nutritional and medicinal aspects of our planty kin and how to prepare them for food and medicine. In working with the plants and weaving them into our lives, we deepen our knowledge and relationship with them. Together we'll craft nourishing herbal teas and wild salads, whip up potent tinctures and healing salves.
Find belonging in the natural world
Cultivate relationship with not only the place in which you dwell but those places that you visit. Once we have the methods, the tools, to better understand and communicate with the inhabitants of that land, relationship unfolds naturally, instinctually, effortlessly. This is what this program offers. A path of connection, beginning with the plants, to place. A path to deep and lasting relationship. A path that you will continue to cultivate and is sure to blossom and bear fruit in ways that you might have never imagined.
The earth and all that dwell herein - the rooted, feathered, furred, scaled - are relations, our dear kindred. We live in a wild communion of absolute mutual dependence, connected in our ancestry and our continuation.
