SUMMARY:Family Farmacy: Resonant Roots
DESCRIPTION:Sound meditation + nature-inspired instrument-making to listen more deeply to the land\, to our bodies\, and to each other.\n\n\nJoin us for a grounding afternoon of collective rest\, reflection\, and creativity at Family Farmacy. This gathering centers a Fall Soundbowl Meditation for All led by Tia (11:30 – 12:30)\, inviting us to reflect on how we can grow together and what seeds can we sow as a community to be prosperous next year. \nBefore and after the meditation\, we’ll explore how sound connects us to our own nervous systems and to the more-than-human world. Participants will be invited to create their own simple musical instruments inspired by the sounds of nature\, creating seed shakers\, wind chimes\, rainsticks\, and rattles for natural and upcycled materials. \nWe’ll close by gathering around a calming herbal tea\, featuring Lemon Balm\, a plant known for its soothing effects on the vagus nerve—the body’s internal bridge between sound\, breath\, and emotional regulation.\n\n\n\nYour Facilitator: Tia Colon\nMattia “Tia” Colon is a NYC native\, Master Level Social Worker\, Soundbath Mindfulness Meditation Facilitator and Community Gardener. She will lead a soundbath mindfulness meditation workshop where participants will enter a sacred space. Find out more about Tia @tia_miyo \n\n\n\nGrowing family wellness through plants and play.\n \nFood is medicine—and the garden is our classroom! Through hands-on exploration across the Greenhouse & Education Center’s learning garden\, greenhouse\, and teaching kitchen\, Family Farmacy invites families to learn together about how plants support healthy bodies\, curious minds\, and open hearts.\n\nEach week\, families will engage in joyful\, drop-in workshops where they can grow\, make\, and taste their way through seasonal lessons in gardening\, herbalism\, cooking\, and plant-based arts. From crafting home remedies and harvesting herbs\, to cooking garden-fresh meals and making nature-inspired art\, children and caregivers alike will discover how to care for themselves\, each other\, and the earth.\nNote: We very generously interpret family here at the greenhouse. We know that welcoming everyone of all ages makes us storng and vibrant. Elders\, children\, youth\, young adults–everyone is welcome and appreciated. We know that caregivers come in many forms–chosen family\, birth family\, those who need the love of family are all welcome. \n\n\n\nWorkshops are rain or shine. \nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers. \nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces. \nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells. If you have needs not addressed here\, please reach out to Mallory Craig at mcraig@thehort.org.
