The Sketches of the Seasons book series walks readers through the changing seasons from a fresh perspective, with each book offering an illustrated story, as well as ideas for celebrating the shifting season, nourishment, kid crafting, and inspiration for adult reflection time. We also offer courses to support people connecting with herbal plants and earth rhythms – each course is focused on a particular season and offers an intro to working with a few herbal plants.
