There’s more than just seedlings popping up in the Turkey Road Farm greenhouse this time of year. Once the heavy snow melts away, I start to feel the pull to throw open the doors and share my love of herbs through an ever-growing list of classes and events. This year, I’m bringing back some annual favorites, while also brewing up a few new offerings.

Our 3rd Annual Spring Garden Tea Party returns on May 30. Guests are invited to adorn themselves in their most whimsical garden party finery as we celebrate the beauty of the season. Sip thoughtfully crafted herbal teas and enjoy sweet and savory treats as we gather in the greenhouse to spill a little tea and revel in the enchantment of spring’s renewal.

For our younger herbalists, Kid’s Potions Camp 2026 offers a hands-on, imagination-filled experience from July 27–29.
First Years (ages 5–8) will be introduced to the magic of plants through sensory exploration, potion-making, herbal crafts, and planting a potions garden of their own:

Second Years (ages 9–12) continue the journey with deeper herbal learning, more advanced potions and projects, and an introduction to custom tea blending:

As the seasons turn, we gather again on October 24 for our 2nd Annual Enchanted Fall Tea Party. This time, we lean into a Mad Hatter meets Addams Family vibe for a cozy, whimsical celebration of autumn—filled with rich flavors, playful magic, and just a touch of mischief to carry us into the darker months:

And this is just the beginning. Throughout the year, I’ll be offering additional classes, workshops, and seasonal gatherings designed to help you deepen your connection to herbs, the land, and your own natural rhythms.

Whether you join us for a cup of tea, a bit of creative play, or a deeper dive into herbal learning, I hope you’ll find something here that inspires you to join us – after all, a little magic grows best when it’s shared!
