Into the Mystic: Wildcrafted Dream Wands
Wild mugwort, or Artemisia douglasiana, has many medicinal and culinary uses but is best known for its association with the wild feminine, full moon, and deep + vivid dream states.
In this workshop, we'll take a walk through our fields and forest to harvest wild mugwort and other dreamy plants on our community land.
We'll each make a personalized dream wand, then we'll head into a hidden grove of old-growth trees where Becca will lead you into a meditative dream state with the support of your wildcrafted wand.
Be prepared to walk two miles with some off-trail and rugged footing.
BYO lunch. More details closer to the workshop date.
And if you want to make a full-on retreat out of it, stay in our Earthen Guest Cottage the night before or after!
*If it's too smokey the workshop will be cancelled and you will be given a store credit in the amount of the workshop that can be applied to all our shop items, including other workshops.
Wild Beauty Immersion: A Drawing Adventure in the Little Applegate Valley
Sink into the wild springtime beauty of the Little Applegate Valley with me!
We'll meet at a trailhead on the Sterling Mine Ditch trail about 40 minutes from Jacksonville, hike through madrone and oak woodlands up to wide open vistas of the Siskiyou Mountains and beyond, and fill our sketchbooks with the beauties we discover along the way.
I'll provide some exercises and instruction to get us all going, then offer ample time for you to be with the land and your creative interpretations of it. This workshop is open for creators of all levels, and is particularly suitable for folks who would benefit from a playful, imperfectionist approach to making art.
BYO lunch and snacks, water, sun protection, and art supplies. Be prepared to hike about four miles total on gently uphill terrain. Trailhead directions will be shared in May.
And if you want to make a full-on retreat out of it, stay in our nearby Earthen Guest Cottage the night before or after!
