🌿Introducing our 2026 Teachers! 🌿

Meet EagleSong Gardener 🌸

EagleSong Gardener dances her mischief in the hedge, that luminous place between wild and tended. A lifelong gardener, she has designed, managed and tended high visibility kitchen gardens and farms, commercial gardens, herb gardens & nurseries. Today, she enjoys teaching herbs from the ground up and engaging woman spirit wherever she is called. You can find her at eaglesong-gardener.com

🌸 She’ll be teaching the following classes this year:

✨ Coming Home: A Ritual Celebration: 6 hour Pre-Conference Workshop, Adults, All Levels
Our Earth is calling maiden, mother & crone to gather, to ground, to enliven and celebrate our connection with her, ourselves and one another. Enter the doorway to the mother’s heart, receive her powerful energies that align us with our dreams and potential.

✨ Light Root: A Bridge Over the Abyss?: 1.5 hour, Adults, All Levels
By 2030, more than 1.2 billion women will be in menopause or post-menopause. Instead of accepting the narrative of decline, we can reclaim this phase as a source of power and renewal. As the Chinese say, a second spring for ourselves...for the earth. Make your pause your medicine. Could wild yam Light Root become an herbal ally on your journey?

✨ Salt Works: You Gotta Love It!: 1.5 hour, Adults, All Levels
Table salt, sea salt, black salt, pink salt! Let’s explore salt in all her guises and ancient history.

✨ Plant Detectives! A Scavenger Hunt!: 30 minutes, Kids
Grab a basket and let’s go on an herbal treasure hunt! We’ll look for sweet scents, tasty morsels, colorful flowers, healing herbs.

✨ Wise Woman Panel: 1 hour
Join our amazing Wise Women teachers as they answer and discuss questions from the audience.

Do you feel it? Do you fee the call to gather together in community, in ceremony, connection and nourishment? What a blessing it is to be able to gather together as women. To join in song and dance, ceremony and healing, learning and laughing.

We’re honored to be able to host this gathering for the tenth year!

✨ Join us in Carbondale, CO this July 31st-August 2nd, and be sure to check out the pre-conference workshops starting on July 30th! You can find tickets and more information in the link in the bio.

Come, let us celebrate the beauty of womanhood! We hope to see you this summer 🌿🌸

✨Red Earth is a sacred ceremonial container created by and for women to honor and activate our inherent life-nurturing power. We gather together to learn from and inspire each other through ceremony, workshops, deep healing and community building. By recognizing the beauty and power of what it is to be women doing our sacred work, our life’s calling, we step into our collective potential to support the great turning of our planet at this time.

Join Us for An Online Pre-Conference

🌿 Amazing Artemesias with Susun W**d 🌿

Join us on May 7th from 7-8pm MST for a wonderful hour on “Amazing Artemesias” with Susun W**d:

Artemis, the Virgin, joins hands with the crone. Let her take you over the moon. Let her aroma transport you. Make space for her delightful wisdom. She’s grand, a little bitter, but full of surprises, dreams, and healing. With story, song, and sixty years of experience, Susun will share her love of this worldwide weedy survivor.

This online pre-conference is only $20 to attend. It will help us to dive deep with Artemis and Artemesia, come together through songs and stories, and start our journey into this year’s 10th anniversary gathering.

Please join us! Tickets available on the website now (link in bio)!
