Hey friends! Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather we've been having. So many of our plant friends have been peeking their heads out sooner than normal this year...it's both exciting to see them and slightly unnerving that they are here a month sooner than they were in years past. With all of this warm weather moving in and all of these flowers showing up, it sure is beginning to feel a lot like Spring! And with Spring comes more action, more movement, more classes and...our birthday.
Maypop will make 6 on the Spring Equinox, which falls on Monday March 20th this year. In celebration we will be having a 10% off sale as a thank you to you, our herbal community and loyal customers. Drop by that day to get your discount and get an herbal chocolate and some tea or cordial at our self care station.
As far as classes, will you be able to make it to the NOLA Herb Gathering this weekend? The founder, Asc3nsion Art, describes it as "a conference embracing self care as health care through the intergenerational and cultural uses of herbal and plant medicine"...which sounds pretty amazing, huh? Rachael and Jen will both be teaching there along with lots of other local teachers. Hopefully you can join us!
We've also got a few other classes coming up, including our next Second Tuesday Tea Time, a class on how to be Resilient to keep up the Resistance aka Self Care for Troubled Times. Also save the date for a salve making class that will be a benefit for Trystereo, our local harm reduction collective, on March 24th. More info on that and our other Spring classes coming soon!
