In this class, we will learn about the traditional Celtic perspective on trees and study a collection of historically sacred ones. We will explore their spiritual significance and the lore surrounding them, as well as their uses for food, medicine, and magick. We will look at, touch, smell, and taste specimens and/or their products to help us connect with and enjoy these tree beings.

This class will be taught by
Crystalline Ruby Muse.

Fee: $20-30 sliding scale
