Hopefully it's an "abundance of caution" scenario but either way stay safe out there R&B fam πŸ’•

Hand a truly delightful time at the WNY Fungi Fest today!
It was a joy to participate. We ended up having a whole community sound healing session with other musicians joining in with voice, chimes, gong, and the largest tuning fork I've ever seen in my life... there was so much gratitude and the safest sense of community.
Well done, Lana and Andrew.
Love,

Colleen and Benett πŸ’—

Ok fam. The long version:
(scroll to bottom for the short version)

The Roots and Branches is staying open for the rest of 2026 and going full steam ahead with hopes we can continue in 2027.

If you want to use the space, let's chat.

$25 for a one time, one hour class.
$50 monthly for a once a week, one hour class.
We've gotta chat and fees gotta be paid before you schedule and promote. No exceptions.

Negotiable rates for room rental for both treatment room (I use this currently for reiki but it's available 3-5 days a week) and the main room (available daytime and select evenings and weekends) for classes longer than 1 hour.

There is one room that is basically a double office I have currently used as storage could be available from Sept-Dec if we are in alignment.

I'll be finishing the fall schedule this week and I'm happy to co-promote, boost, hype up your event and presence if wanted. But I'm doing it on Sunday so lmk before then. Otherwise, October.

Retail: I will probably limit retail to those local to the shop and those I also have wholesale agreements with in the future. I have a really exciting vision that combines my experience as a pharmacist and herbalist that y'all might love, but I'm not making any big decisions until after this eclipse πŸ˜†

THE SHORT VERSION: business as usual til at least November. Come to classes. Hang out. Have fun.

Please drop any sort of anything in the comments if you read this πŸ’— encouragement and cute pet pics are preferred.

Next sewing project class!

Join us in the shop on Monday evenings! We are putting supplies together until the week before so prompt registration is super helpful. Machines are available for use, basic familiarity with machine sewing is helpful, but if you need to brush up on skills I will be posting some sewing help sessions in the next couple of weeks!

This class is led by Victoria Chaires and I'll be on site to help out with this or other projects, and to set up for chair yoga after class at 7pm 😊

Have a great weekend 🌞
