Ancestral Plant relationships

plant spirit healing & nature connection training

75-Hour Certificate Program

Co-taught by Lupo Passero & Zach Fisher

Our ancestors come in not only human form, but in plant form as well.  Human beings and plants beings have been co-evolving together for over 200,000 years.  There is an unspoken language between plants and people that our ancestors knew and understood. Deciphering the Language of Plants is an imperative for building and fostering “right” relationships with all living beings. Our ancestors knew each plant and tree intimately and could tell you the story of each species including its medicinal, edible, and utilitarian uses, but more importantly the spiritual and emotional healing virtues as well.  

The Ancestral Plant Relationship Series is about re-membering plant medicine in all of its forms and deepening our close and personal understanding of the green world.  We will work with a different plant and focus on a specific plant part each class, focusing on a different part of the plant and following the law of the seasons.

Each class will include an overview and thorough introduction to the medicinal, edible, utilitarian & spiritual uses of our monthly plant ally. We will spend the day getting to know each plant ally as an individual and form an intimate and meaningful relationship. We will make a variety of preparations with the plant and will end the day with a deeply profound plant spirit healing ceremony which offers the participants a chance to journey into the spirit of the plant. Each participant will take home a primitive tool, herbal remedy or handmade project each month.

All participants will make and take home a variety of primitive and spiritual crafts made with our plant ally, in addition to several herbal preparations. This series is a two part training offered in both Spring and Fall from 10-5:00 with instructors Lupo Passero and Zach Fisher.  This class is a 75-hour certificate program with 42 classroom hours and 33 home study hours.
