SMALL TREES THAT THRIVE IN OUR COASTAL GARDENS

Submitted By: ketzel.levine@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Do you have a garden with bright shade that could do with a tree under 15′ with valentine-red flowers that hang from evergreen branches?

If that’s you, check out Crinodendron (pronounced cry no DEN dron), the Chilean lantern tree. We’ve got fabulous specimens growing right here in Manzanita and Cannon Beach so give it what it needs and you’re likely to have success.

What does it need? I could tell you but then you wouldn’t come to Saturday’s talk and you DO want to be there!

COASTAL TREES FOR A CHANGING CLIMATE

If you haven’t had a chance to try out this combination art, wellness & magic- now’s your chance.

Iris Sullivan Daire of Dreambird Studios in Astoria will be leading a solar fabric printing class in the garden. Warning- If you’ve never done sun activated cyanotype art- it’s super addictive.

Adria Badagnani of Art & Channel in Manzanita is leading a Summer Solstice circle and bringing her poetry, gem essence oils and magic to play with.

I’m firing up our wood fired sauna/cold plunge and making tea & snacks.

Razor Clamming Workshop w/ Razor Clam Chowder at Osprey Cafe

Submitted By: shiftingtidesnw@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
This workshop will introduce students to intertidal ecosystems of the Oregon Coast. We will discuss tides, ocean conditions, and safety. We will be digging Razor Clams on the beach front in Seaside, OR. Students will learn about the different environments of various clam species as well as the clamming industry along the Oregon Coast.

After clamming we will venture to Osprey Cafe where owner and avid forager, Josh Bokish will make us his locally famous smoked razor clam chowder. Josh opened Osprey Café in 2014 after working in kitchens all over Portland. The café focuses on brunch favorites, with an international flair and a specialty in local produce and seafood. Foraged goods often appear on the menu; including mushrooms, sea beans, stinging nettles, seaweed, fiddlehead ferns and wild onions, to name a few. Josh is also an avid fisherman, crabber, barnacle gatherer and clam digger in his spare time.

Extra bonus, chowder will be served in bowls made by a local potter Michelle Valigura of Basalt Pottery in Cannon Beach. Michelle has created her own blend of recycled and foraged clay that is sourced from the cliffs of the north coast. She incorporates this mixture of clay into bowls and plates for daily use or an artistic showpiece. You’ll even get to take these home with you (:

Shellfish licenses must be purchased prior to class, which can be done online through the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.

This Thursday’s dance will bring focus to the vagus nerve

Led by Libby Golden
Thursday 6.15.23
At the White Clover Grange on HWY 53

Doors open at 6:00 PM for warmup/setup
6:30 PM – opening circle/dance set
8:00 PM – closing circle

$10 cash check or venmo/paypal
(kids are welcome to dance for free)

Music will include opportunities for chanting and humming along with our dancing. Gentle breathing, stretching and toning tips for vagal nerve health will open our dance session. Come wander in wonder with this key wandering nerve in our bodies to bring more ease, comfort and pleasure. Studies show good vagal tone decreases anxiety, depression, PTSD, insomnia, lowers blood pressure and has a balancing effect on blood sugars and digestion to name a few benefits.

________

Dance Etiquette/Tips:
*All are welcome – Family friendly events – Come as you are.
*Bring a water bottle and layers.
*Bring kindness and respect for yourself and others and your willingness to explore and to dive into the ecstasy of spirit available through movement.
*No outside shoes on the dance floor if possible (dirty floors aren’t fun to roll around on)
*Please no strong scents.
*We ask that you limit talking during the dance set. Set up, break time, and the foyer area are great places to have longer conversations to limit distractions for others.

We dance every Thursday (moving to the beach next week!)
…Hope to dance with you soon
