writing in the weeds - 6 week online class

Now, more than ever, as we continue to navigate the death cults of capitalism, white supremacy culture, climate chaos, and the police state, it is vital to turn to the wisdom of the earth, the cosmos, and our more than human relations

What lessons do 'weeds' have to offer for healing our personal narratives, creative capacities, and social movements? This class series will engage with plant medicine as a process for recovering the fullness of our personal and collective stories, memories, and identities.

Each week we’ll commune with one or more plant allies that have been considered weeds. Supported by visionary texts, plant meditations, and our lived experiences, we’ll engage in practices of embodied writing, to explore the wisdom and strategies that plant allies can share in supporting our creative emancipation. By building relationships with plants that are grounded in deep listening principles, we are able to access stories of ancestral resilience and resourcefulness to challenge dominant ideologies and envision possibilities for a loving, regenerative, transformative world.

Thank you for hosting and facilitating such a beautiful workshop series! It was truly a highlight of my summer. Our time and space together was grounding, uplifting, and definitely therapeutic. The workshops helped me to write far more than I have in a long time and inspired me to continue honing my craft as I explore deeper connections with the earth and all their beings. Thank you for facilitating movement and play, as well as stillness and reflection. I love the figure eights exercise as well as the insights on how our plant friends guide us. I love that I can now identify more plant friends wherever I go. From mugwort’s gender expansiveness to yarrow’s boundary setting, I learned so much! All of the poems were amazing and the prompts consistently felt like just what I needed in that moment. - Windy
