What we’re about

This group is to help people explore plant medicine, nature, and community around it while having fun and enjoying it all!

Plant medicine journeys held in nature have a profoundly different impact than either alone. This group brings together people called to explore those experiences — through education, connection, and shared journeys.

These journeys still get deep. Personal growth and integrating insights back into your life is often difficult. But it can all still be joyful, and you don't have to do it alone. We don't have to go overboard with it all

This group is for you if...

You’re new to plant medicine and want to learn more about what it is, and ways of going about it.
You’re looking to go on a journey — We offer nature based Mushroom Journeys in Oregon for those looking for mushroom specific Journeys.
You’ve already journeyed and want community, support, and continued integration with others get what you've gone through, and can share their own stories and experiences.
You prefer finding joy and fun things as a pathway of getting to the deeper stuff.

What We Do

This group makes it easier to get to know this work, build relationships, and get out and do some incredible journeys together that people may not do alone.

I am a long time river guide, whitewater, skiing, plant medicine enthusiast and am drawn to "self work." Finding ways to play in nature, and in my own consciousness, and by extention spend time in these ways, we build an understanding and relationship with these gorgeous places and our deeper selves.

But it's always been the joy and fun I have doing these things that keep me coming back, which makes all of the heavy lifting of it easier. Of course it does get de
