2026 Dates Coming Soon!
HedgeWise
A journey through the nature year making medicine with plants, crafts & earth wisdom in the ways of old.
​
Your HedgeWise journey will follow the seasonal growth of the plant world, beginning with the flowers in the spring and ending with roots in late fall.
​
You'll learn to make a variety of medicines from teas and tinctures, to salves and syrups to fermented drinks.
​
Medicine of All Kinds
Medicine comes in many different forms. When we make a beautiful basket, it's medicine for our soul. Its beauty feeds us in many ways.
​
Bringing our soul's expression out into the world through hand-crafting is valuable medicine where our creations become our personal talismans.
​
In each class, you'll have the time and the spaciousness to receive in the medicine of the plants through plant communication and body sensing.
