A Year of
Plant & Nature Immersions
4 weekend retreats in Dolores, CO
This is a seasonal program of retreats offered in collaboration. Katya, Kristina, and Marnie have combined their experience and passions to gather and make medicine and create opportunity for a deeper connection to the local flora and the land in a retreat setting. Together we’ll explore plant meditations, make land offerings, explore various herbal healing modalities, take plant walks, and more... Each retreat will offer participants a chance to attune new skills in herbalism while also deepening one’s connection to the land and each other. This immersive seasonal series has something to offer everyone on a healing journey.
Join us for one or any number of the retreats we have planned for the Year of Plant & Nature Immersions!
Our retreat schedule will be shared closer to each retreat date with those registered.
The specific plants we work with may change; will be based on what is growing on the land,
in season, or most useful for that season's focus.
Meet Your Facilitators
This year of study with plants comes out of a longing for collaboration and community connection by three local medicine women. Each of them brings their heart's work and experience to the table, so that participants will be held in an a caring, creative, and immersive experience.
