Creating Space for the Spirit to Remember

Land-based teachings with Darcy & Jenny Fisher

WALKING THROUGH THE SEASONS

Monthly Gatherings | March through October 2026

A Year of Learning, Making, and Reconnecting

Every month we gather to walk with the land, work with seasonal plants, prepare nourishing food, and remember that we belong to the living world.

These gatherings blend Indigenous knowledge, hands-on making, and gentle ceremony. No experience needed. Just curiosity and willingness to walk softly.

Each month includes:

  • One Community Circle (2-3 hours, $85 USD)

  • One Hands-On Workshop (half-day, $250 USD)

MONTHLY GATHERINGS (March - October 2026)

To walk is to remember.

Walking Through the Seasons
Food • Plants • Story • Connection

  • Community Circle: Tea, Story & Seasonal Plants
    Workshop: Roots & Recipes - Food as Medicine

    March is about softening winter from the bones and welcoming the first stirrings of spring. We'll work with birch, willow, cottonwood, and early dandelion greens.

  • Community Circle: Plant Companions Walk + Creative Reflection
    Workshop: Forage, Feast & Create

    April brings movement and emergence. We'll meet spring's first plant allies, learn respectful harvesting, prepare wild foods, and create with natural materials.

  • Community Circle: Plants, Bodies & Belonging
    Workshop: Wild Greens & Spring Medicine

    May is about relationship in motion. We'll work with nettles, strawberry leaf, and early greens. Learn to make mineral vinegar, spring salts, and nourishing meals.

  • Community Circle: Berry Season + Pollinators
    Workshop: Berry Medicine & Summer Syrups

    June teaches us to work with abundance while maintaining respect. Berry harvest, preservation basics, and creating healing syrups.

  • Community Circle: Gratitude + Harvest Ethics
    Workshop: The Wild Harvest Table

    July is full harvest. We'll gather, prepare, and celebrate seasonal foods together. Learn what it means to take only what you need.

  • Community Circle: Preparing for Autumn


    Workshop: Summer Apothecary & Food Preservation

    August is about storing summer's medicine. Drying herbs, infusing oils, making salves, and preserving food for the months ahead.

  • Community Circle: Stories of Summer
    Workshop: Roots, Oils & Autumn Medicine

    September calls us back to earth. Root medicine, autumn salves, and preparing the body for winter.

  • Community Circle: Grief, Gratitude & Story
    Workshop: Winter Preparation + Medicine Making

    October closes the circle. We honor what we've learned, prepare for winter, and gather around fire for story and song.

  • We're choosing to live this year differently - more outdoors, more nourishment, more making with our hands, more teaching through being rather than explaining.

    In times that feel uncertain, one of the most powerful things we can do is gather, learn, cook, create, and walk together. These seasonal gatherings help us feed our homes, strengthen our spirits, and remember that the earth still provides.

    We're doing this to tend both our own family and our wider community - sharing practical skills, ancestral knowledge, and simple joys that help us live well together.

    For those who cannot. For those just remembering. For those yet to come.

    • Connection to others walking this path

  • This isn't lecture-based learning. We work side by side. We make mistakes together. We figure things out together. The real learning happens when your hands are in it.

    We both bring years of experience in human services and community wellness: meeting people where they're at, supporting people through barriers, creating space where people feel safe to learn, make mistakes, and build something new.

    Teaching goes beyond recipes and measurements. It's about relationship - with land, with plants, with each other, with ourselves.

  • Darcy Fisher (Ktunaxa) & Jenny Fisher (Salish, Kootenai, Pend d'Oreille)

    We're co-owners of Six Twenty Skincare, co-authors of Walking Through the Seasons (320 pages, 66+ plants, framework for intimate relationship with natural world and self), and practitioners with decades of combined experience in plant medicine, traditional foods, human services, and community wellness work.

    What we're sharing comes from generational knowledge passed down through our families, gifted by Elders and knowledge holders who trusted us to carry it forward. This knowledge has evolved with modern science and practice while staying rooted in what our ancestors knew.
