Get dirty every Wednesday from 4:30 – 5:30 in our bilingual learning patch. Weeding, watering, planting and growing community is what we’re up to, and you can too!
2024, gratitude & opportunity
In 2023 we popped up at Share Fair and nurtured our bilingual learning program at Skinner City Community Garden. Mountain Rose Herbs continued hosting our workshops at their Mercantile annex and the Free Herbalism Project. We provided wellness supplies to folks with covid as we have done throughout the pandemic, partnered with Huerto de la Familia miembros to make fire cider at the Churchill garden and, thanks to Michael Blair at the Human Path, sponsored one person to attend a beginning herbalism course delivered in Spanish. We survived the speed bumps of health issues thanks to community support and awesome volunteer dedication!
This year we’re working to expand our relationships with underserved folks, nurture the garden project and add free mobile clinic to our offerings. Stay tuned for ways you can participate – or maybe you have something to offer that we need to hear about?
To those who reached out and waited patiently during our longish response time, our sincere apologies. To those who persisted and those who continued generous support of our various projects, we are humbled and grateful for your enduring generosity.
We look forward to another year of health, collaboration and opportunities to serve our community.
A thousand thanks!
What’s a pandemic without a little solidarity?
Since putting together the relief supplies for the Diné Nation’s devastating bouts of coronavirus last year, we’ve been busy!
We’ve been:
Organizing inventory.
Providing custom care packages to sick Latinx families..
Collaborated in February with Huerto de la Familia to provide 167 wellness packs for their member families during their annual garden registration events.
We’ve received a seed grant from HWB headquarters.
Most recently, we’ve partnered with Huerto to begin developing a bilingual outdoor herbalism classroom at Skinner City Farm. We are very excited to pull the blanket off of that bed and dig in with fresh enthusiasm!
