Overview

Escape from the daily grind and spend a long weekend grounded in the mountains. Join us for a multi-day excursion into the San Juan Mountains of Southwestern Colorado where you'll enjoy chef-prepared meals, stay in a lodge nestled at 11,100', unwind with daily yoga, and learn to forage wild medicines and craft your own herbal remedies. We will start our days with a grounding meditation practice before diving into a foraging practice - learning to correctly identify a variety of wild medicinal plants, and digging into all the practical skills one needs to wildcraft these plants in an ethical and sustainable manner. Then we will be processing and preparing several medicines with our botanical bounty. Preparation skills will be honed and many recipes will be shared so you can return home and DIY.
