Nervous System Reset: This spring, gather with a supportive group of kindred spirits in the unglaciated hills of Southwestern Wisconsin. Together we’ll slow down, reconnect with our hearts, and tend our nervous systems. We will exhale that breath we’ve held for so long and rediscover the joy of creating and connecting alongside community.
At the end of the weekend, you’ll take home not only a recipe booklet of teas, tinctures, and other herbal potions to make for years to come, but also a bespoke collection of products made by your own hands–including a floral essence, aromatic hydrosol, infused honey, custom tea blend, and so much more.
Our Purpose:
-
Connect with a nourishing, supportive community
-
Slow down to remember who we are
-
Tend to our overwhelmed nervous systems
-
Create a collection of nervous system nourishing products as a reminder to take small moments for ourselves every day

Choose the payment amount that suits your budget: regular, supporter, reduced, or free.
Regular ($325): This level covers the cost of all materials, supplies, and our time.
Supporter ($425): for those with the means, Supporter Level payments help us purchase herbs, supplies, and packaging and offset our time putting together the event. This allows people with financial need to attend a Community Apothecary at a free or reduced rate and helps us prepare for future apothecaries by allowing us to pre-purchase herbs, packaging, and other supplies. Thank you for supporting others!
Reduced ($225 or $125): If the regular fee is too much for you, snag a reduced-rate ticket! A payment at this level will cover much of the cost of your herbs and materials.
Free ($0): No one will be turned away due to finances. We know how it feels to find the resources you want are just out of reach. If you wish to attend but find it's not within your means, we'll cover your materials costs. We want you here!
Note: a minimum of 6 paid participants is required to host the event. If fewerer than six register, the event will be rescheduled for later in the season. Thank you for understanding!
