A is for Acceptance: An Herbal and Somatic Workshop with Adaku Utah
We begin with Acceptance—not as resignation or giving up, but as a practice of coming home to ourselves. In this session, we’ll explore how acceptance feels in the body, and how plants can help us build care, deepen capacity, and stay present with what’s real.
Together, we’ll spend time with two plant allies, move through a gentle somatic practice, and reflect on what it means to be in right relationship with ourselves, even in the midst of change.
In a world that pulls us toward disconnection, we’re practicing how to return—to ourselves, to each other, and to the earth.
Whether you're just beginning to explore plants, or you’ve long moved with their medicine...
Whether your body feels distant or deeply known
This space meets you right where you are.
Each month, we explore two plant friends, one letter of the alphabet, one emotion, and one somatic practice to reconnect. From Acceptance to Zeal, we listen for the ways our bodies speak, and remember how plants have always connected us through feeling, healing, and change.
This isn’t about fixing or overcoming ourselves.
It’s about learning how to stay with what’s here, with a bit more curiosity and compassion.
Each gathering includes:
✨ one emotion as a guide
✨ plant allies to steady and nourish
✨ a somatic practice to rest, release, or reclaim
✨ a ritual or reflection to carry into your month
This space welcomes both new and experienced plant practitioners.
You don’t need to have it figured out.
Your body is welcome. Your questions are welcome.
Your healing—complex, layered, and real—is welcome.
We begin in August with the letter A for acceptance.
Together, we explore:
🌿 How does this emotion live in my body, and what might it be trying to teach me?
🌿 What plants have supported people through this feeling across time and place?
🌿 What can this plant teach me about being in right relationship—with myself, with others, and with the planet?
🌿 How can I respond with more connection, care, and choice?

Community textile creation with Blue Light Junction and Oko Farms
Join the artists of Blue Light Junction (Baltimore, MD) and Oko Farms (Brooklyn, NY) to create a communal textile art piece on site at Oko Farms’ waterfront Williamsburg location.

Surrounding ourselves in the natural environment, we will come together to learn, craft, and commune as our ancestors before have done. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about traditional ways of dyeing and creating fabric with plants while working together to collectively create something improvisational and new.
The event will start with a discussion-based panel from our textile artists. Kenya Miles of Blue Light Junction, Yemi Amu of Oko Farms, and Kenn Pan of Oko Farms (with other guests) who will share their experience, cultural practice, and new knowledge around the revitalizing field of traditional natural dye and textile production. Event participants will then receive a short instructional lecture on the traditional plants, materials, and techniques we will be using. Using the precious natural dyes and fibers grown on both of our farms, all participants will join together to make a communal textile art piece. Participants will also have the opportunity to take a small item home.
