MEET THE FACILITATOR

melissa cornacchia

Hi! I’m Melissa, the Honeybee of the Homestead. My journey as a homesteader, folk herbalist, forager, naturalist and farm hand started 15 years ago. It was the beginning of experimenting, learning, playing and connecting with the ways my ancestors lived in cocreation with the generosity of the Earth. When I’m not at the homestead you’ll find me dancing, teaching dance, hiking and participating in community events.
