In my next collaboration with print-making artist Jessie Merriam, we'll spend time with the Linden/Basswood tree (Tilia spp.), a tree who gives us medicine, food, fiber, lumber, and the perfect soft medium for carving print-making blocks!
We'll be gathering at Fireweed Community Woodshop. Registration is currently closed, but please reach out if you'd like to join us.

What's not to love about unfurling, heart-shaped leaves and carpets of sweet purple flowers? Violets are finally emerging all over the city and their sweetness and and care is in abundance!
In this third in a series with historian and print-making artist Jessie Merriam, we approach these moistening, playful plants from many angles. Participants will learn the medicinal and culinary uses for the plant, sample violet remedies, and then carve their own wood-blocks inspired by dear Viola.
Registration is now closed! This class has passed, but other herb/print-making collaborations are in the works...
Monday, May 22nd, 2023 * 6:30-8:30pm * Anam Cara House, 3612 Bloomington Ave S, MPLS
This class will be a primer in some of the most helpful plants to turn to for the bumps, bruises, bites and burns of summer!
Learn some basic summer herbal first aid, discuss herbs for sun protection, and visit the weeds at the ready in our own back yard. We talk about seasonal allergy prevention/relief, too.
Please come prepared to be outdoors. We'll take a short plant walk and sample some cooling teas. Summer is a great time to dive into learning new herbs, with lots of opportunity for practice, so we will focus on simple, practical remedies that you can start using right away.
The ask for this class is $15-45 sliding scale.
Please reach out if you need a different arrangement!
