Fall/Winter 2018 Workshop Series
Crafting and Nourishing Our Way into Winter with Lara Pacheco, Paige Common & Kate Coulton
Join herbalists Lara Pacheco and Kate Coulton as we craft with natural dyeing and nourish with seasonal medicine making to bring us into the colder, quieter and darker months of the year. Lunch will be provided by Chef, Paige Common from Eatin Alive. Each participant will learn some basic steps of dyeing with plants and will be able to personalize their own dye bath for a skein of wool yarn. Folks will also leave with elderberry syrup and herbal vinegar that we will make as well. There will be an optional Meet&Greet (and optional lesson on how to prepare your fiber/wool for dye) on Friday November 30th from 6:30pm-7:30pm at the Sou’wester in the lodge living room.
Kate Coulton of Pinion Botanicals and Lara Pacheco of Seed and Thistle Apothecary offer customized experiences around connecting folks to plant medicine, body and land. They do this through education and herbal crafting. Lara and Kate also offer a 11 month herbal apprenticeship program that delves deeper into these connections and supports folks in tapping into their ancestral medicine.
Paige Common started preparing plant-based foods in her Portland kitchen giving life to Eatin’ Alive in 2010. Detroit born and bred, soulful living inspires this gal: healthy diets, hearty laughter and active lifestyle. She believes that a rainbow a day will keep the doctor away.
