June 2022 Update

Hi there!

An update about the garden project at the Skinner Community Garden (which doesn’t have a clever name yet, but wants one):

Progress!

Project Garden is in development. We’ve got 4 squares – 2 medicinal plots, 1 salsa plot and 1 children’s plot. Programming, signage & events are pending. Stay tuned for updates! Want to help? email hwbeugene@gmail.com

The rose workshop at Mountain Rose Herbs Annex raised money, made medicine for the Uvalde grief relief project and made new friends!

Next workshop is all about yarrow Sunday, June 26, 1-3pm. We’ll discuss uses, lore and demonstrate the stovetop method for making hydrosols.
