Dear STRŌB Community,

November brings abundance to our shelves—from essential herb restocks to freshly harvested local treasures, plus exciting news about our biggest holiday gathering of the season.

🌱 Herb Restocks: Essential Allies Return 🌱
Back on our shelves: Spearmint, Raspberry Leaf, Orange Peel, Jasmine, Nettle, and Dandelion Root—all those apothecary staples (https://www.strobapothecary.com/shop/loose-herbs/29) you've been waiting for.

Sweet Berry Matcha (https://www.strobapothecary.com/product/sweet-berry-matcha/FJYNNJVHLBMRBJQU2CNQJ5NT) will return on Saturday for those who love their purple lattes and pink lemonades!

Raise Your Voice (https://www.strobapothecary.com/product/raise-your-voice/2539) is back just in time—this throat and voice support blend keeps you moisturized through all this dry winter air.

🚜 Fresh from Fox Haven Farm 🚜
We're so grateful to share that freshly harvested and dried Goldenrod, Sage, Peppermint, and Passionflower have arrived from our growing partner Fox Haven Farm. These herbs were grown specifically for our community on land that's carefully stewarded with intention and care.

Having this direct relationship with our farmers means we know exactly where these plants come from, how they were grown, and the hands that tended them. That connection matters and we are grateful to share it with you. Fox Haven Farm (https://foxhavenfarm.org/) is located in Jefferson, MD and hosts a number of exciting herbal classes and events, too! Please check them out.

🌸 Katemfe Update 🌸
Good news! The distribution warehouse has finally accepted the Katemfe shipment and we've placed our order. Now it's a packing and shipping waiting game, but we'll keep you posted as it makes its way to us. They say by December 15th. Keep your fingers crossed for earlier!

Dear STRŌB Community,

We've got a full week ahead—spell jar magic, energetic cleansing basics, and a cozy gratitude gathering before Thanksgiving pulls us all in different directions. Here's what's happening:

🕯️ Saturday, November 15th | 1-2:30pm | $44 ($33 Collective members) 🕯️
Spell Jar Magic with Kona
In-Person

Most people think spell work is about throwing ingredients in a jar and crossing your fingers. Actually, it's about strong intentions and relationships—so let's gather and learn how to work with plant and crystal spirits who want to support your intentions.
Kona will walk you through:

•The magical and medicinal properties of many herbs and some crystals
•How to ask permission from plant and mineral allies
•What energetic correspondences mean and how to use them
•Setting intentions that actually land
•Assembling spell jars with care and respect

You'll create three complete spell jars and leave with the knowledge to keep making your own. All supplies included—herbs, crystals, candles, jars, handouts.
--> Claim Your Spot (https://ticketscandy.com/e/magical-correspondences-spell-jar-and-wand-making-11714)

🌿 Monday, November 17th | 7pm ET | $13 🌿
Foundations of Energetic Cleansing with Jahnavi
Virtual, live, and recorded

Your space holds energy. Your body holds energy. Sometimes that energy gets stuck, heavy, or just plain weird—and knowing how to clear it is essential self-care.

Jahnavi teaches core principles and accessible methods for cleansing yourself and your space energetically. You'll learn:

•What energetic cleansing actually is (and why it matters)
•How to do it well, not just perform it
•Methods you can personalize to your life and needs
•How to start a sustainable cleansing practice

Jahnavi is a channeled sound healer, yoga instructor, and shamanic practitioner devoted to spiritual empowerment and ancestral healing. They channel healing through vocalized sound, intuitive touch, and subtle energies—and share their knowledge generously. Learn more about them and their services here. (https://goodflowrestoration.squarespace.com/)

Live participants can ask questions. Can't make it live? The recording is yours to keep.

Grateful Together: A Gratitude Gathering with Sean + Olivia
Virtual and for members of The Collective

Before the holidays sweep us up, join Sean and Olivia for a cozy virtual pause to reflect and celebrate gratitude.

We'll start with community connection time, then explore what gratitude means as a lived experience in daily life. Gentle journaling prompts help you discover and deepen your gratitude practice. You can share your reflections with the group if you want, or simply be present—both are welcome. We'll close with a soothing gratitude meditation to carry this energy forward.

What to bring: Your favorite tea or warm beverage, a journal and pen, and an open heart.
--> Join the Gathering (https://thestrobcollective.mn.co/events/grateful-together-a-gratitude-gathering)

Saturday's in-person and hands-on. Monday and Tuesday are virtual—one teaches foundational energy work, the other creates space for reflection and connection. All three offer something you'll carry with you long after the session ends.

Hope to see you there,
The STRŌB Apothecary Team 🌿✨

🎂 Birthday Party Recap: Community Love in Action 🎂
What a night! So many familiar faces and new friends gathered to celebrate five years with us. The treats—oh, the treats! Our community brought so many delicious bakes.

Our winners:

🍰Cakes: Alice's Pumpkin Cupcakes with cream cheese frosting
🍪Cookies + Bars: Hannah's buttery Baklava
🍞Breads: Melanie of Root + Lore (https://www.hotplate.com/rootandlore) home bakery's sourdough bread

But here's the best part: Together we raised $577 to share between the Fattah family in Gaza and our Sudanese sisters!

Mohammed Fattah, 25, is the main support for his family of 23 members—now 24, because two months ago his brother Moad and sister-in-law Ahlam welcomed baby Ayla to the world. Moh expressed deep gratitude when we sent him $288.50, and the support has continued flowing (https://chuffed.org/project/120005-help-evacuate-mohammed-and-his-family) even after our party concluded.

Our community is love. You proved it again.

✨ From Celebration to Divination ✨
There's something magical about the way this community shows up—whether it's to celebrate milestones, support families across the world, or gather around tarot cards and tea leaves on a Friday night. Each gathering reminds us why we do this work.

This Friday, bring that same beautiful energy as we explore the mystical arts together. Whether you've been reading cards for years or you've never pulled a single card, there's space for you at this table.

Can't wait to see what the cards reveal and what wisdom flows through our collective practice.

See you Friday night!
The STRŌB Apothecary Team 🌿✨

P.S. Want to check out those new heirloom pendulums and decks before Friday? Stop by during regular hours—we'd love to show you what just arrived!
