Saturday & Sunday, October 18 & 19, 2025-9:30am to 4:30pm*
Plants are our ancestors and our wild kin and they are speaking to us in every moment -- but as a culture we have largely forgotten how to listen. As the late Stephen Harrod Buhner wrote and taught, the heart is an organ of perception, and through learning to work with the heart in this way, we can re-enter communication with the rest of the living world. In this workshop we will explore the nature of heart-centered perception and techniques for cultivating it, and ways of engaging plants in a heart-centered way. All that is required is a beating heart and an openness to experiencing the world in new and ancient ways.
*One hour break from 12:30pm-1:30pm, please bring a lunch, beverages provided
