Join us on December 11 at 7pm CT for The Winter Treat Builder Workshop, a calm space to make sweet and savory seasonal treats using accessible, home-friendly recipes. You can join with a materials kit or use ingredients from your own kitchen.

This workshop is an invitation to tend yourself and loved ones through small, handmade offerings of food and herbal support.

It’s getting harder to fill our pantries, but care, creativity, and community still feed us deeply.

Stretching grocery staples isn’t just about making food last longer; it’s about turning what we have into nourishment, connection, and hope.

Herbs, grains, roots, and shared wisdom can carry us far when we cook with intention.

🌿 Support and reach out to local food pantries and mutual aid groups in your area that are there to help.
