Friends, it's time to gather.
Let's navigate these rough waters together.

This Sunday 12-1pm central, I'm offering a FREE one-hour online class that looks to our "Herbal BFFs" for support and guidance in finding emotional strength to care for ourselves and each other. Registration on my website arisebotanicals.com (linked in bio). The class will be recorded and shared with everyone who registers, so you don't need to attend live.

I'll be sharing slides, digital resources and discussing a few of my herbal go-to's for stress, grief and overwhelm because we are all living in stressful, overwhelming times of great loss and transformation.

This is an invitation to come together to learn more about accessing emotional support from the plant world. When we are feeling better supported, we can increase our capacity to show up in integrity for all that life demands of us.

Herbs offer so much in the way of reducing the impacts of stress and sorrow on the body while also illustrating ways of living in relationship with ecosystems that can navigate transformative change. Let's listen to our plant friends! I hope to see you there 🤍🌿

The pickup event for the Winter Botanical Bundles was a success! What a joy to have community, neighbors, friends and family come through for tea and good conversation while learning about the remedies everyone took home. Hawthorn, Reishi, Turkey Tail and Cottonwood were featured in the tea, tincture, syrup and salve that made up the winter share along with a beautiful Hawthorn print from . Thank you to for the gorgeous addition of the dried flower bouquets. Thank you to my brother Nick for all the ongoing work with the garage studio renovations (and the donuts!)

Winter Bundles sold out, and full-year shares are closed. There will be 3 bundles available for the spring share. Orders open in April, although Winter SBB participants git first dibs. Message me if you'd like to join the wait list.

Ended the day with a walk up at Shoemaker Marsh as the full moon started to rise. Imbolc marks the turning point from winter to spring. Today felt like a breath of fresh air.

Doors are Open 🦋 Registration is Live

Join me online for "Herbal BFF's" on Sunday, February 15th, 12-1pm central. An invitation to come together to learn more about accessing emotional support from the plant world. We will discuss a few herbal go-to’s for addressing stress, grief and overwhelm. As well as suggestions on how to access and work with these remedies. This is a free online class and intro to "Navigating the Highs and Lows Together" series.

The emphasis of this series is on interconnection and ecology.

How can herbal remedies support us in navigating difficult emotions in a complex web of human relationships?

What lessons can we enact for living through these extraordinary times by deepening our relationship to Nature?

How can herbal remedies support us in accessing and stewarding these gifts from our beautiful and abundant Earth?

Arrive curious to get to know the medicinal plants growing all around us, some likely right outside our doors.

We will discuss how to identify, grow, and prepare a variety of herbal remedies.

A limited number of add-on herbal bundles are available (pickup, local delivery and shipping available). I’m excited to offer this option which will allow participants to taste, touch and smell the plants we are discussing in each class.

This is a space to learn more to support yourself and others in navigating individual and shared realities of anxiety, depression and other mental health struggles. However please note that I am not a doctor, therapist, or licensed provider. I am a clinical and community herbalist with almost 20 years of experience as well as a deeply feeling human with over 40 years of practice, living in a complex web of relationships.

I am craving more spaces where we can come together and cultivate skills and remedies to suport each other in bearing witness to cruelty of these treacherous times.

Workshop Alert 🧄🔪🌶 There are 5 seats left for the upcoming Kitchen Herbalism class coming up on Monday and Tuesday evening, November 10-11th, 6-7:30pm each night. This is an annual class that is a cornerstone of my herbal practice. We have potent and powerful remedies available on our spice racks and produce bins! Join a discussion where we'll explore the medicinal benefits of common herbs, spices and produce as we examine traditional remedies and create a batch of Fire Cider together. You will leave with a jar to take home. Discover a variety of accessible and practical home remedies for keeping you and your loved ones healthy through cold and flu season.

Registration is online at Southeast.edu - use the keyword HERB to seach under the Community "course search" tab.

This is often a topic that I approach from a perspective of accessibility and it's not lost on me the devastating impact of the current manufactured crisis of food insecurity in denying SNAP benefits to millions of people. My household also relies on SNAP assistance to make ends meet and it's these intentional selections from the grocery store that also support our health and wellbeing year round. I'd love to have you join the conversation at SCC this coming week to dive into practical advice and recipes that you can share with your neighbors and community at large. We keep us nourished!

If you would like to attend, but are short on cash, send me a DM or message via my website. I can offer a few full or partial scholarships. Let's talk!

If you're able to donate to support local mutual-aid in keeping our community fed, please consider supporting the work of the Everett Free Grocery Program 💛🍉

Feeling so very grateful for community these days. So many of us are navigating big loss, uncomfortable change and future unknowns. What I know is that calling in help and completing big leaps for a vision coming to fruition feel affirming (next phase of Arise Botanicals!) Thank you to everyone who helped with the big dig as well as the ongoing Tulsi harvest + processing.

Also pictured: Last Sunday's plant ramble was nourishing. Collaboration made it possible. Relationship with land made it sacred 🌾 I've also started up with Nature Club at Prescott Elementary again. These young ones teach me so much with their curiosity, observations and reflections.

This Sunday I'm looking forward to bringing the pop-up apothecary to for the Harvest Moon Pop-up, 12-3pm (4726 Cooper Ave, Lincoln). Pepe's Bistro and Daughter Nature will be bringing their delicious and delightful plant magic as well! See previous post for details.

Monday is both the Champion Tree Bike tour, led by Kat and Brad (see flyer on last slide). Free community bike ride to appreciate gorgeous trees right here in Lincoln (meet at Woods Park parking lot, 5pm)

Also on October 6th, I'll be teaching my Elderberry Syrup workshop at SCC Continuing Education 6:30-8pm. A perrenial favorite! There are 2 seats still available. Details on my website or register at Southeast.edu (course search under community with keyword HERB)

I've been practicing herbalism for 18 years and in business as an herbalist for 10. I'm forever learning, slow growing and planting seeds for the future, even and ESPECIALLY in uncertain times. So glad we're connected. Let's keep going 🌻
