Sacred Journey to a Harvest of Wisdom is taking a pause for March.

We’re using this time to thoughtfully reshape the gathering so it works well for everyone involved.

We look forward to reconvening in April with a refreshed format.

Yesterday we had a great turnout for our Sacred Harvest paint day, New faces, great conversations, and delicious food shared by all. Thank you all for coming, and sharing your artistic talent with us,
looking forward to our next get together in March ❤️

❄️ 🌨 ☃️ Well, the snow was no match for our friend and neighbour Paul Higgins who kindly made us a parking lot for our Sacred Journey to a Harvest of Wisdom painting gathering coming up on Saturday!

I do love the snow ❄️ but might not so much if I didn't have such wonderful neighbours who make sure we are taken care of in it!

Looking forward to learning about Acrylic Painting with an amazing group of people!

For folks attending, feel free to list your potluck item in the previous post or to check out the food lineup! 😀

02/08/2026

We are so grateful to all who pre-registered for this event!

For those who are attending and know what you are bringing for potluck... some have told me directly but I thought better yet, you can tell each other so everyone knows! Feel free to write in the comments what you will be bringing for the potluck so that others can coordinate if they choose. There will be fifteen eaters in case that matters to your planning!

With all the snow – parking will be a bit more interesting than usual. We can fit all the cars in the front driveway but please carpool if you are able to. The catch is that you’ll have to leave in the order that you come in, or move your vehicle at the end if you are blocking someone else in. I think it is all doable but if you think you have to leave early, please try to park close to the road so as to avoid a lot of shuffling.

The instructions for the painting will begin promptly at 11:15 AM.

If you have any questions or comments, please let us know. We are looking forward to another wonderful gathering!

Sacred Journey to a Harvest of Wisdom — February Gathering 🎨

Our next gathering is Saturday, February 14, starting at 11:00 AM.

Theme:
Acrylic Painting Gathering
Sunset Silhouette

Sacred Journey to a Harvest of Wisdom is a collective learning group where everyone is both teacher and student. One person will gently guide the activity, but this is not a class or workshop — it is a shared experience.

We will start the painting together at 11:00, working through the first steps of the sunset background.

We’ll then set the paintings aside to dry and enjoy a shared potluck lunch.

After lunch, we’ll return to the paintings to complete them.

Even if painting isn’t really your thing, you are welcome to come for the connection and community.

What to bring for painting (all available at Dollarama):

• Canvas or canvas board (9×12 recommended)

• Acrylic paints: yellow, orange, red or pink, blue or purple, black, white

• 1 medium brush

• 1 small brush

• Paper plate or palette

• Cup or jar for rinsing brushes

• Paper towel or rag

If supplies are an issue, please let us know — we likely have extras.

Don’t let lack of supplies be the reason you can’t come.

✨ Free to attend
✨ Bring your own supplies
✨ Bring a potluck lunch item

⚠️ Space is limited due to table space for painting.

Pre-registration is required.

Please register by Thursday, February 12th, but it may fill up before then — so if you’d like to come, message us as soon as possible.

Event details are shared through the Sacred Harvest and Sacred Eagle Farm pages (not public posts).

If you think you might like to join us, reach out.

Sacred Journey to a Harvest of Wisdom Events🐮

We met again this past Saturday — a gathering of curious, open-minded, free-thinking people, where everyone is both teacher and student. This month’s theme was “Everything Cows”, and we also started planning our year ahead. 🐮

Half the group arrived early for a milking demonstration — seeing how a simple milking machine works, asking questions, and imagining future milk cows. 🐄

At 11 AM, everyone (ages 11 and up) came together for wide-ranging conversations and another delicious potluck. Five hours slipped by without notice! 🍽️🍝🍛

What This Is:

There’s no cost to attend. People come for connection, fellowship, and practical skills — and many have said the relationships matter more than the theme itself.

Going Forward:

Winter events have limited space, so pre-registration is required. Event details will be shared through the Sacred Harvest and Sacred Eagle Farm pages (not public posts). If you think you might like to join, reach out to us!

Each month, someone shares knowledge or a skill, but anyone can contribute. Sometimes you bring supplies for an activity; other times, one person provides materials and participants reimburse them — another reason pre-registration is important.

Upcoming Themes:

📅 February 14 — Acrylic painting
📅 March 14 — Hand-sewing an apron
📅 April 11 — Wool processing 🐑
📅 May 9 — Natural wool dye 🐑
📅 June 13 — Foraging 🌱
📅 July 11 — Herbal tinctures 🌿

More dates to come.

😊 Thank you to everyone who came to our last Sacred Journey to a Harvest of Wisdom gathering on December 13th — a winter sowing session, potluck, and seed swap. Fourteen of us gathered, and although it was planned as a three-hour event, no one even began to leave until four hours had passed, with some staying closer to five, simply because the conversation and time together kept flowing.

Since then, we’ve been talking with participants about keeping these gatherings going as a monthly, relaxed space centered on shared food, connection, and open, respectful conversation without having to self-censor, with opportunities to learn through listening, sharing, and hands-on experience.

Here are some of the interests and ideas people shared that they’d enjoy exploring together over time:

🌿 herbs and plant knowledge, including uses, tinctures, and practical applications

🪴 gardening and growing food

🍞 food skills like baking, fermentation, preserving, smoking, and nutrition

🐮 animals and homesteading, including sheep, and dairy cows — milking, milk handling, and making things like 🧈 butter or cheese — as well as rabbits, butchering and general animal care

🕯 handcrafts and making, such as spinning, sewing, knitting, tanning, candle making, and creative arts like painting

⭐️ learning through lived experience, observation, and shared curiosity

Some gatherings may naturally include hands-on elements, demonstrations, or longer sharing when it fits. Other times it may be more about conversation and connection. We’re intentionally keeping the format flexible and letting the group shape what happens.

We have lots of great ideas on the table, and for January 10th we’ll be choosing one main focus, with an eye toward planning the next gatherings as well.

Please comment below with:

1. Your top two interests from the list above

2. The specific aspect of each one you’d most like to focus on

3. One area you might be open to sharing some experience with, even informally.

We’ll use the overlap and specifics to choose the focus for January 10th (11 AM - 2 PM+) and help shape what comes next.

Curious to see what people are most drawn to. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

🌼✨ Goldenrod: Nature’s Golden Healer! ✨🌼

It was wonderful connecting at our recent foraging gathering with Sacred Journey to a Harvest of Wisdom! Today, let’s highlight the amazing Goldenrod – often misunderstood but full of benefits. 🌞🌿

Goldenrod isn’t just a vibrant yellow bloom; it's a powerhouse for wellness! Traditionally, it's used to support kidney health and ease respiratory issues, and it’s an excellent choice for a natural anti-inflammatory and digestive aid. 🌱 Many make it into tinctures or teas to relieve muscle pain, reduce bloating, and soothe sore throats. You can even try adding dried goldenrod to bath soaks for a relaxing, skin-calming experience. 🛁💛

🌻 Debunking the Allergy Myth: Goldenrod often gets blamed for seasonal allergies, but it’s actually innocent! The real culprit is ragweed, which blooms at the same time and has a lightweight pollen that spreads in the air. Goldenrod pollen is much heavier, staying close to the plant, so it’s unlikely to cause allergies. 🌾✨

Look out for goldenrod along fields, meadows, and roadsides – it’s a true gem of late summer and fall! Just remember to harvest responsibly and with gratitude. 💛🍃

Sacred Harvest Nursery Greenhouse update! 🌱

Friends, I have to share a little story about trusting the process and learning as we go - especially when building on a hillside! The first truck of 2-minus gravel arrived for our greenhouse pad - exciting milestone! Though that first load barely made a dent in what we needed, especially given our terrain challenges. Thank goodness for amazing friends - one brought several more loads with his dump trailer, and we thought we were getting somewhere!

Initially, we tried to position the pad to work with the natural slope, hoping to minimize how much we'd need to build up the grade. But you know what they say about measure twice, cut once? Well, after all the gravel was beautifully spread out, I went inside for a quick break and happened to glance out my window... and had one of those heart-dropping moments. Despite everyone's best efforts, the pad wasn't quite aligned with the house the way it needs to be. This might seem like a small detail, but when you're building a greenhouse in snow country, alignment is everything! It needs to work with the wind patterns rather than against them.
The reality is, building on a hillside means there's no avoiding some serious grade work.

Part of this adventure included relocating our deck - which turned out to be a blessing in disguise! What could have been a major headache turned into a perfect solution as we carefully moved it with the skid steer to the back of the house, where it fits like it was always meant to be there.

Yes, it means more gravel and bringing the equipment back (ouch!), but you can't build something lasting without the right foundation. Sometimes doing things right costs more than doing things quick - a lesson I keep learning! 🙏

I'm choosing to see this as part of the journey rather than a setback. After all, Sacred Harvest Nursery is meant to be here for the long haul, serving our community. Better to catch these things now than wish we had later!

Thank you all for continuing to support this vision as it unfolds, one load of gravel (and one relocated deck!) at a time. God keeps teaching me patience and persistence through this process - and the importance of different angles of perspective, quite literally in this case! 😊

Stay tuned for more adventures in greenhouse building - hopefully with the gravel in just the right spot next time! 💚
