Summer Series - Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris)

Our intention with these workshops is to teach participants how to utilize the plants we will be focusing on, creatively and medicinally. A vast majority of plants will produce beautiful ranges of color as well as having medicinal benefits that enhance physical and mental well being. Open to all skill levels - these workshops will demonstrate how multi-faceted plants, mostly invasives, can be.

Open to all skill levels!

First in our summer series is the infamous mugwort! You will generally find mugwort taking up all the space on roadsides and uncultivated places. In this workshop, we will learn how to identify, forage and utilize it! We will also talk about ethical foraging practices, the invasive status of mugwort and the benefits of utilizing it as medicine. Although this plant can be a nuisance, it holds a very special place in many cultures.

Join us as we create a communal dye bath with mugwort we will be foraging on site while also crafting a smudge bundle for stimulating dreams.

Each participant will leave their own dyed silk scarf, an info packet with a materia medica and instructions on how to dye at home as well as the bundle that they will make during the workshop.

Sliding scale: $45-$65

This workshop will be held in Walkill, NY - the address will be emailed to participants a day or two before the date.
