2nd Annual Gaia Gathering for Women

MAY 2nd - 4th

Down through the ages, women have been shaping history, healing and politics. This gathering is an honoring of the Divine Feminine and a celebration of how strong that movement is. The classes offered will be for the self, the family as well as community. We will teach skills for gardening, medicine making, permaculture, drumming, ceremony and much more. The whole weekend will be held as a ceremony to honor the earth as a living being, a powerful Mother who holds endless wisdom and guidance to those that are awakening to action. In keeping with teachings of sustainability we will be drawing on local teachers who are deeply gifted in their respective arts. We will gather together throughout the weekend to hear of community ventures that many women have seeded, weeded, watered and nourished. We will be inspired by each other and learn of local projects where we can serve our community. Being the celebration of May Day and Beltane, we will join in song and music around the fire we will light to send thoughts and dreams for renewal for our local environs and beyond. We will begin Friday evening at 7 and go till 3pm Sunday afternoon.

Guest Teachers include Terry Lilly, Mary Michaud, Suzanna Stone, Heather Umberger, Rain, Teresa Boardwine, Kathleen Maier and others.

All food will be organic and wild foods will be a main fare.

We are accepting vendor applications as well.

Deposit $50. Fee for the weekend is $175 and it includes all meals,
camping and access to all events.

Limited work barter positions available.

Where I Come From Chlorophyll is Queen

Where I come from chlorophyll is Queen

She has always been the undisputed champion of the people

Prima Donna

Prima facie

One without challenge or vying contender

Spring of Springs

Holder of the living Scepter

We like it that way

She is Monarch

Conqueror, warrior and midwife

Delivering and protecting us

From sickness, pain and evil

Chlorophyllia the 1st since creation conception

The Divine Deity of Interceptors

Empress without dispute or correction

We call her the Green Queen

The Jade Reconciliator –Consigliore

En Domini Veritas Christos

Bringing peace and equity to the nation

As written in the manuscripts of her botanical scriptures

We are her progeny

We are her seeds

She is our milk

Our daily bread

The root of our existence upon which we lay our head

She is the God of Light reflected

Photosynthesis injected

In every thing on earth we see

In every living, breathing plant

In all the herbs of nature’s fields

In every tree that bears fruit

In every fingerprinted leaf

To chlorophyll we humbly kneel

And from our hearts

We give our thanks and praises
