Healthy Yards, Healthy You - A Winter Introductory Exploration Series
What if tending your yard could be a gateway, and an invitation, to not only restore health and vitality to the living landscape but also to restore your own sense of well-being, connection and belonging?
Whether you care for a few potted plants or many acres, during this Winter exploration series we will gather beside a cozy fire, drink delicious herbal tea and take a deep dive into reframing our relationship with the Natural world.
This is not a gardening “how to” series, although we will talk about practices and techniques, we will instead explore them from the perspective of being in relationship with your land rather than yard work being a dreaded chore filled with ongoing conflicts. We are going to bring peace and joy back to the process!
