Session 1 — August 13
Body & Bouquet: Arranging Flowers + Herbal Preparations from the Garden
Meet your guide, Nitika Achalam at the intersection of form and function. Discover the artistry of working with dual-purpose plants that nourish both body and spirit. We’ll create intentional flower arrangements while discussing how to dry, preserve, or prepare plant materials for later herbal use. This class includes a brief introduction to foundational plant energetics and encourages participants to consider the broader story: how Indigenous ancestors used what grew around them for ceremony, healing, and everyday beauty.
You’ll take home a bouquet and a small herbal preparation from the plants we discuss.
