Step past the threshold of an evergreen forest and something almost mystical happens. The world seems to soften. The air turns resin-sweet. The light grows green. And the ancient ones—those tall, time-weathered conifers—gather around you like elders humming an old, remembered song.
It’s easy to feel held there, wrapped in the quiet knowing of trees who have watched centuries rise and fall.

If this kind of forest-born wisdom calls to you, our friends at @dandelionherbalcenter are offering something truly special:
Ancient Evergreens: Stories & Medicine of the Conifers, a journey into the teachings of our Green Elders for modern times.

In this online class, you’ll explore:
🌲Cultural and ecological stories of the Ancient Evergreens
🌲 Tree identification and meeting the conifers in your own region
🌲The grounding practice of forest bathing
🌲 The medicinal gifts of conifers, from aromatic oils to teas and honeyed preparations
🌲Ten timeless lessons the trees offer about living well

As Adele Dawson once said “As long as they think we’re crazy, we’re safe.” 😂

This transitional time in every woman’s life can bring great upheavals, frustrating and confounding body changes…but also freedom and joy and, yes, hilarity.

Join me and 11 other herbalists in @botanicwise’s new (and free!) webinar “A Menopause Panel of Hilarity” on November 11 at 6pm ET. We’ll laugh and learn together through this important transition in life.

We were chatting with herbalist 7Song the other day about his upcoming class for Plants for the People. The conversation turned to the “perks” that teachers and sponsors are offering summit attendees.

With his trademark playfulness, 7Song asked, “Are there any plants that you’d call…perky?”

Immediately, Calendula came to mind—our chosen summit plant ambassador.

Calendula, with her bright golden blooms that follow the sun across the sky, is a plant of resilience and cheer. She tends to the skin with gentle healing, eases inflammation, and brings light to weary spirits. A flower of warmth and endurance, Calendula feels like a living embodiment of “perkiness”—always lifting, always shining, always reminding us that healing can also be joyful.

🌼 Just as Calendula offers her gifts, every summit registrant will receive exclusive “perks”—special offerings from our presenters and sponsors designed to extend the teachings and give back to the community. Think discounts, downloads, and treasures that continue the circle of care long after the summit ends. We’ll be adding more in the coming weeks, so be sure to check back often and see what new surprises await.

Check out the summit perks (and while you’re there, be sure to register).
