Wrightwood Nature School
IN PERSON CLASSES
Nature School is open twice a year during the spring and fall for 8 weeks. During this time, students experience the transition from winter to spring and summer to fall as the garden moves through a cycle of birth, growth and inevitable death. Students spend time in community playing and learning about the ecosystem, regenerative gardening, herbalism and the food cycle from soil to plate to compost.

Herbal Support for Fall
Fall is a time when nature herself surrenders to the inevitability of transformation, shedding the old to make way for the new. As the days grow shorter and the weather cooler, we are called to take stock of our actions, reflect on our journey, and find beauty in impermanence.
An herbal blend for Fall
Fall is a time of transition. Just as Spring slowly brought warmer days and green sprouts, Fall brings back the cold and shorter days in preparation for Winter. When we think of fall what comes to mind? Colorful leaves turning brown and falling on the ground, leaving trees bare. Dry flowers turning into seed pods that fly through the air, spreading everywhere they can.
How to make an herbal infusion to drink all day
I have a routine now where I start infusions at night in a 60-ounce teapot. The herbs steep overnight and this is the water I drink all day long to stay hydrated and nourished.
