Ready to embrace the nourishing power of autumn?
Join folk herbalist Melissa Cornacchia of Honeybee Homestead for a whimsical woodland tea party focused on seasonal wellness. This three-hour workshop is an intimate gathering to slow down and build a personal relationship with the potent herbs of the season.
You'll spend the afternoon engaging your senses with an array of herbal teas and homemade snacks, all while learning how to integrate seasonal herbs into your daily life in simple, effective ways. We'll explore which plants are most beneficial for this time of year and how they can be your allies and support you.
You’ll leave with a deeper connection to the rhythm of the seasons, a widened understanding of herbalism, and your very own custom tea blend, carrying the wisdom to nourish you through the autumn. This is all included in the $110 per person cost, along with all herbs, materials, and snacks from The Homestead.
The workshop will be held in a beautiful, sheltered outdoor space, and in the event of challenging weather, we'll gather in our cozy yurt.
Join us for an afternoon to be held and nourished by the plants and prepare for the transition into fall!
What to Bring:
An outdoor-friendly teacup to enjoy an array of seasonal teas!
Layers of clothing for comfort.
A journal and pen (optional).
