News:
I'm currently filming a medicinal plant online series with aboriginal herbalist Lori Snyder. A 2 hour online experience, teaching about important wild medicinal plants, how to identify them and turn the into simple medicines like balms and tinctures. Expect that at the end of the month!
Swallow Tail To Go
Update: We're looking for a venue to use as a takeout window currently, so this is on hold for now. As Container Brewing (our old space) reopens, they need to do some renovations to possibly take advantage of the new patio regulations in Vancouver, so we can't do it there as planned. We'll partner up with them again soon.
