Winter Incense Crafting Workshop-Sun Feb 11th or Mon Feb 12th

Join folk herbalist and farmer Marae Dalgas in a hands-on cozy evening exploring the medicine of plant smoke and methods of hand rolling incense cones. We will be working with locally grown herbs, resins, berries, bee propolis and honey.

We will be exploring:
-Smoke clearing practices rooted in Slavic and Scandinavian tradition. These are my ancestral lines but we will also be discussing the cross cultural traditional use of plant smoke for folks of mixed ancestries. We will be discussing ethical harvesting practices and the issues of appropriation of Native American smudging practices and sacred plant medicines.
-The medicinal and psychospiritual properties of plant smoke
-Blending, shaping and drying methods
-Incense blends as tools of devotion and prayer

This workshop is limited to 10 spaces to keep it intimate and focused.
