SUMMARY:Seasonal Wild Tending
DESCRIPTION:In days gone by\, it was common practice for people living in wild places to tend the land which provided them with food\, medicine\, and shelter. It was a daily exchange of life between human and the natural world. In this introductory series\, we will explore the natural world and discover ways to more fully engage with her as she moves through each of the four seasons. In each class we will: create an outdoor (temporary) medicine wheel in order to deepen our understanding of the cyclical nature of all life: plants\, people\, animal/insect. We will also engage with/forage the plants which are available to us as we seasonally and learn how to transform what they have to offer into something we can use\, aka beneficial preparations. This class will be balanced with time outdoors for Wild Tending and indoors for hands-on practice of preparation techniques and extraction methods. Each class stands on it’s own. Together they create a synergy of seasonal attunement aligning your wild nature with the natural world around you.
