Natural Dye Workshop with Shannon Studio

Another collab, you say? You got it!

I’m so excited to partner up with @shannon_studio for our second natural dye workshop together on Saturday, May 4th (rescheduled date) from 1pm-3pm at the side yard at one of my favorite shops in Richmond— @thewildheartshop!

Like our previous workshop, we will be learning how to make natural dye pigments from elements from Mother Earth! The kiddos will then use the pigments to make their design on a cotton bucket hat, just in time for warmer weather!

I’ll also have my usual crafts setup—you don’t want to miss this one! Register under “What we do—Troop Sage.”

See you out there!

Nature House Making in the Park

Come make a wooden mushroom birdhouse/nature house with me in my neighborhood park, Chimborazo! Looking out at the entire city, it’s the perfect place to bring your family to run around and have a picnic. It’s also super close to the capital trail. I’ll be bringing ten houses—$20 per crafter. You must sign-up in advance so I can make sure I have enough houses. Let’s enjoy spring in the city together!

Cooking with Nature with Chef Olivia

Cooking with Nature with Chef Olivia

Incredibly excited and over the moon to finally host a workshop with my dear pal, @olivemajor. If you live in Richmond, you have either devoured her baked goods or drooled over photos of them. I am lucky to have done both multiple times. My favorite thing about Olivia is her deep love for her community and how she shares her love through the gift of food.

Both as fellow East Enders, we are even more excited to host our workshop in our neighborhood at @coflowrva!

Children attending this workshop will enjoy a baking lesson with Olivia and crafts with me—truly the best of both worlds imo.

Drop off your kiddo, have lunch at Union Market or @pizzabonesrva, top it off with a scoop or two from @spottydogrva, and treat yourself at @shopdearneighbor. Everybody wins!

Register using the Troop Sage section of the website under “What We Do.” 10 kiddo max. Payment due one week before the workshop!
