Discover a new freedom of transformative growth! Learn and understand the relative dominance of the archetypes of six Norse Goddesses in the lives of modern women and how they influence your behavior patterns.
After taking this workshop you will be able to:
• Understand and remove unfair expectations or limiting beliefs
• Recognize major behavior patterns that have influenced your life,
• Understand why you have lived the life you have so far, as well as offering the potential for transformative growth in the future.
You will explore and validate yourself to be as you were meant to be, providing a source of freedom and understanding that you can tap into.
Understand which goddess type is operating most strongly within your behavior patterns and learn to bring more harmony between the various goddess qualities by having them all in balance.
We will discuss both the positive and more challenging aspects of each archetype pattern and share experiences with the other workshop participants.
This will enable you to understand why you have lived the life you have so far, as well as offering the potential for transformative growth in the future. At the end of your journey, you will sing your power as the goddess that you truly are.
At this FREE workshop, you’ll learn how to garden in a small space. The Square Foot Gardening class will be taught by expert gardeners, Lewis County Master Gardeners! You’ll learn what plants grow well in small spaces, as well as information on soil, compost, fertilizing, planting, weeding, ongoing maintenance of your square foot garden and harvesting your garden bounty.
Square Foot Garden Workshop will be held at Borst Master Gardener’s Demo Garden, on Saturday, April 23rd, 10am.
Just show up, rain or shine and join us for Square Foot Gardening.

Grow Your Own Produce is a 10 class monthly series taught by permaculture expert Marisha Auerbach. Each class features seasonally-relevant information about planning, growing, maintaining, and harvesting food from your own vegetable garden.
?
Each month, the class is designed to help you maximize your yields and efforts in the garden by providing an overview of key activities to engage in at the right time each month from February through November. We meet on the first Wednesday of each month through Zoom. Before the class meeting, participants will receive a collection of handouts supporting the key topics for the month with a garden checklist for the month ahead. We will discuss different subjects that are pertinent to the garden that month using slides and the month’s handouts as reference. There will be ample time each class session for questions. After each class, participants receive a video of the class and pdf of the slides.
