We had a phenomenal turn out and were so deeply touched by all who came with full hearts & helping hands. Because of you, we were able to collectively cook up, stir, strain, mix, bottle, dedicate and bundle over 100 winter wellness kits containing fire cider, elderberry syrup, herbal v***r rub, herbal respiratory steams, cough honey, Love notes, and more for our BIPOC communities- all of this medicine is being shared & the love of the plants and the people will help nourish us this winter. We are reminded that in these times of terror and uncertainty and increasing disparity our solidarity our care and willingness to share and show up is the medicine is the nourishment that makes way for liberation and honors sovereignty . Keep getting to know your neighbors make way for connection and share the beauty of your dreams- together we can get more free & keep each other safer✊🏿✊🏾💜

We had so much fun at our community root harvest day that we decided to open it up again for community to join us to assemble our WINTER WELLNESS KITS. Every year we make hundreds of kits to distribute to our communities, as a way to care for each other during the cold and flu season. The kits are full of immune boosting remedies, as well as hand made “Get well soon” cards and lots of love and prayers. This year we will make an elderberry syrup, cough honey, sinus steam, a chest rub and our infection fighting lung tonic “Restore your ROAR!”
The kits will be distributed directly to community, centering our unhoused relatives through Tahoma Indian Center; as well as individually stocking up our community organizers, caregivers and matriarches to support the ways they hold community and get the medicine where it needs to go! Hands up to everyone who has helped with this project in past years, and we look forward to gathering with you again!
Join us on MLK day, Monday January 19 from 11-3pm in the greenhouse at Wild Hearts Farm (address on Flyer) to mix, pour, label, decorate and package these medicines.
Feel free to bring family and loved ones, there will be projects for all ages and abilities, as well as special card making art projects for kids. We will serve a main dish at around 1pm, but please bring an additional potluck item. WE will be in a heated greenhouse, but please bring layers as the temperature fluctuates.
RSVP to via text to (361) 283-6499 so we can get a head count for lunch!

Root MEDICINE! Thank you to all for joining us on the farm for a full day of digging up our medicinal plants, making medicine and taking home rootlets for your garden! We worked with elecampagne, horseradish, marshmallow, valerian, and more!
This was an especially joyous day the sun came out to bless the land and all the beautiful people that dug into the mud, poured offerings back into the earth, and made for an overall amazing root harvest !

Raising our many hands in gratitude and wishing everyone blessings as we continue to reflect on our own root work of late fall!

It’s time for Root MEDICINE! Join us on the farm for a full day of digging up our medicinal plants, making medicine and taking home rootlets for your garden! We will work with elecampagne, horseradish, marshmallow, valerian, and more! We will make fire cider, oxymiels, and maybe some spicy horseradish dip to take home!

Canoe journey 2025 Paddle to Elwha: Our Crew!

Our crew is everything! Our crew is showing up with so much love and dedication! To late night meetings, early morning greeting the canoes, crazy scouting missions, long days of care. Not to mention the endless work of keeping a community fed and sheltered, the never ending ebb and flow dishes and tent setting up and baby wrangling and loading and unloading. Our crew is magic and full of characters; of fits of delusional giggles, side missions, pranks, of bringing your chickens AND puppies AND cats cuz they are part of the family too. Our crew is intergenerational, it's abuelas and moms and babies and all different life phases and cultures and needs and somehow we navigate what can be really stressfull constant waves of change with communication and group grounding and ceremony and lots of jokes... thank you to everyone (not everyone pictured) who makes up this incredible crew! Thank you for offering your love, labor, your medicine to us and all our relatives on journey this year!

Canoe journey 2025 Paddle to Elwha: 🌱Our Care Space!🌱 we have been developing this idea of our mobile community care space over the last 7 years on canoe journey and it has evolved from one pop up and hand mixing salves to a fleet of pop ups, private and community care spaces, 20 person acudetox circles, and an amazing and skilled community of people who make it happen every night.
Every night we do care on journey we have about 20 volunteers, all offering different gifts and trainings, and set up care a care space for 4-6 hours where people on canoe journey can come receive medicine, healing and treatments, as well as yummy teas and time to connect with relatives in a reading setting. We have a greeters and give out tent, offer herbal footbaths and acu-wellness in our community care circle, a first aid tent, a healers tent for acupuncture/massage and traditional healing, and a smudge bundle station. Did you visit our care space this year?

We are so lucky to be able to travel with our families on canoe journey. To have our kids be apart of culture, protocol, community and be cared for by alllllll the aunties/tias/zizis.... and they bring us so much silliness and joy on journey, slowing down between busy days, sitting on the ground, getting curious. Thank you to our adventurous, mischievous and wise babes for cracking our hearts open over and over again!
