These plant spirits, which are nothing short of legendary, show up in folk and fairy tales, stories of witches, baneful magic, and psychedelia to wildly varying degrees. Whether handling them in person or listening to tales about them, undivided attention and respect are a must. We will discuss cultural and spiritual impacts these potent plants have had on humans around the world, and their unique needs for success in the garden.

Winter is an ideal time for us to dream up our garden plans for the upcoming growing season. This unique series of classes centers the witch’s garden through the lenses of magic, herbalism, gardening tips, and earth stewardship.
Each class offers a deep dive on different harmonious pairings of plants along with preparations made with many of the plants discussed. Participants will take home samples of these preparations to further enhance their studies and build their own personal plant spirit apothecary and grimoire pages for each of these plants.

Michelle VanderHouwen is the owner of Oak and Hawthorn and provides the plant babies for Ritualcravt’s annual plant sale.

Throughout all her years, she has studied art as a window into Spirit and the psyche, and Nature has been her church. Michelle believes that our hands are magnificent communicators. When we let them dig, sculpt, draw, scrape, tie and sew, we are sending messages to and from Heart Center. Our hands, full of sensation but devoid of reasoning, can create pure, honest prayer. In Michelle’s classes she teaches, with a variety of tools, different ways of accessing Spirit using our hands and hearts. Her goal is to help us all access the knowing we had at birth. Michelle is deeply knowledgeable about the spiritual wisdom of nature, studied Shamanic Herbalism with Darcey Blue, and walks with the soul of a Witch.
