I have layered it deeply in my day to day life. I’ve expanded my practice to be both hydrosol distillation & facilitation of breathwork sessions. They are deeply intertwined in my own rituals that have been pillars for my mental health & wellbeing.’ Find more at oliveofthesea.com

We celebrate Imbolc, the halfway point between winter solstice and spring equinox, the beginings of spring begin to stir in the soil, the first green shoots appear; a time to honor the dark fertile void of winter, and all that we’ll plant and grow in the coming months!

We’ll continue our Birds for Gaza bird making, one bird to honor every child killed in Gaza.

Join us as we tend to our grief and our joy!

Welcome back!! And happy almost Full Moon! (happening Jan 25th)

We are thrilled to begin the new year by gathering in a new space, the Brentwood Darlington Community Center, located at 7211 SE 62nd, just a couple blocks from where we gather at Green Thumb (just south of the park, and behind Lane Middle School). ** note that at this space we must wrap up gatherings at 11:30

Partum Gardens is a partner in the Birds for Gaza Portland effort, and we’ll have an area for folks to make birds and hold space for collective grief. Birds of Gaza is a community art project to craft unique birds to remember every child killed in Israel's war on Gaza. Through the power of collective art we're highlighting the atrocities that have led to over 8,800 children (and counting) being mercilessly killed. Find more information here
