Hello wonderful friends, loved ones and online community! I’m feeling called to humbly speak a prayer to my village. As you may know, I am currently a self-employed retreat chef, herbalist, Kambo medicine practitioner and yoga teacher that serves a number of community events, organizations and individuals throughout the year, with Spring/Summer/Early Fall being my peak times. Just coming off of the most amazingly busy season of serving new offerings and expanding to new retreat centers, I have a work/life impacting problem to solve…….and since my home and work life involves rural northern
New England, this is a significant hurdle.

This problem is my car. My magic carpet, my safety net, my dependable tool that allows me to support such a unique and outside the box “career” that fills me with such joy! She is struggling and needs a most important repair. One that is quite outside my financial means at this time. One that will keep me from accepting fall/winter work and has already forced me to decline work that I truly needed. It is also leading to a sense of defeat, or failure which I know is a false narrative that I am still working to heal, but stagnancy and feeling stuck is sneaky. A lot comes up in my emotional well being related to this.

With the help of my brilliant mechanic friend, we have exhausted almost all DIY and recommended solutions and I seem to be at a point to make a choice I was dreading. Replacing the catalytic converter.

With a lot of time spent praying and brainstorming a solution, it led me to think of the phrase “it takes a village” and I truly believe sometimes that could come in the form of finding the courage to speak a need out loud. So I share this humbly in deep gratitude and ask for support.

If you find yourself thinking you may be in need of my services or content, and my story has crossed your field and you would like to support my prayers, BY booking a class, a service, a small sampling of my recipes or to purchase a homemade herbal product, I would be most grateful. I am in an open state of receiving prayers in any form that is meant for me so that I may continue to serve my community.

Support options:

🌱 Purchase a limited batch 2024 seasonal herbal product (either pickup or delivery, details on each photo)

🌱 Book a Kambo ceremony for 1:1 or group sessions. Individuals that wish to book this, please reach via text or DM to schedule an intake call.

🌱 Receive a PDF of The Nourishment Mama’s most popular 2024 recipes. DM for more details.

🌱 Book an upcoming class with me at The Hive Farm & Community Space. Links to events in comments!

🌱 or if you feel called to just support my cause, that would be truly incredible!

I truly thank you for your time holding space for this share.

Humbly yours,
Ambee

What a whirlwind of a journey these past 8 days have been in Western MA! I've had the pleasure of spending time with loved ones and indulging in edgy experiences that have pushed me to new heights. I'm grateful for the quiet time to reflect and process all that has transpired, and I'm thrilled to be back at The Hive, where summer has just exploded and morning will be spent with all these luscious plant beauties!

Good morning and Happy Sunday ya’ll!

🌱🌱🌱Foraging & Land Blessing Workshop! Space still available, REGISTER TODAY!! 🌱🌱🌱 Details below

Join me as a resident and member of The The Hive: Farm and Community Space, an intentional community in Candia NH, built on the foundation of preservation of land and natural resources with a focus on sustainability.

As a practicing herbalist and foraging chef, I study and cultivate herbal, medicinal and edible plants that are often viewed as weeds or invasive species. This workshop will explore how to begin to shift this perspective by giving attendees an opportunity to study the plants in a hands on way.

We will explore plants for their medicinal as well as edible value, and sometimes both! We will learn the plants identifying characteristics, medicinal elements and spiritual properties. Tips for protection and sustainable harvesting will also be shared.

Finishing our time together we will journey to our onsite Labyrinth and offer plants in ceremony. More to come in future posts!

To prepare for this workshop, please note the following IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Wear light colored clothing, and please use non-toxic insect repellant, for the comfort of all attendees, as well as to limit toxic substances from the plants.

Bring gloves for comfort and protection from plants with 'stinging' or irritating characteristics

Bring a seating option, like a blanket or collapsible type chair such as a back jack or applicable style.

We will be moving around the land to our identified areas ONLY, and not free roaming to preserve all areas of plant growth.

We do not allow furry friends to join these workshops to preserve the comfort and safety of our resident feline friends and our free-ranging chickens.

Please bring a water bottle, notebook and pen. Workshop handouts will be provided electronically, to limit paper use. For an additional $10, copies can be provided, so please just reach out if that is your preference, or print at home.

This workshop is offered on a sliding scale donation based system as follows

I am feeling abundance and can pay full price - $55
I am feeling limited in financial resources - $33
I would love to attend, but cannot financially commit - Please reach out and share your story with me. No one will be turned away due to lack of funds.

Cost is attributed to the energy exchange of knowledge sharing, time commitment and resources of the land. A portion of the proceeds go to the "Hive Fund" which is established to help us maintain the property and our offerings

RSVP to this event as 'GOING' to reserve your spot, and Venmo donation to -Blinn

Very much looking forward to this offering!
