Workshop participants at Red Twig Farm have a unique opportunity. Most workshops provide materials — Red Twig produces the full life cycle experience of the plants who are lending their wisdom to human endeavors. Seed to scarf, near to the land, I experienced the life of a plant capable of creating Indigo, a shade the modern world takes for granted. The land reflects the respect it is given, singing between it's two creeks.
Red Twig workshops yield the experience of a full sphere community along with thoughtful curriculum
and the deep wisdom of women who are engaged with unfolding the Earth's secrets.
