connect with plants in community

At these monthly salons you’ll have the chance to connect with one herb at a time in an immersive container, while also raising funds for collective care. At each salon we’ll engage our senses, our intuition and our curiosity to build new relationships with plants and each other. Each salon will be in a different East Bay location to highlight the specific plant of the day and at each salon you can expect to:

  • Spend time with the plant of the day

  • Participate in a guided plant meditation with the plant of the day

  • Taste teas and/or foods made with the plant of the day

  • Collectively make a remedy or potion with the plant of the day

  • Go home with an essence made from the plant of the day

  • Learn from direct experience and in community

Participation in each salon will be capped at 12 people so that there is enough space and time to learn and share together. Cost is $30 which will include an essence and all proceeds after material costs will be donated to a different mutual aid organization.

The first Plant Salon features ROSE and will be held at the Morcom Rose Garden Sunday, May 12th from 3-5 and will benefit the GAZA MUTUAL AID SUPPORT NETWORK.

This location is outside and wheelchair accessible. For more accessibility questions feel free to email me! REGISTRATION IS OPEN HERE.
