Flyer for the soft opening of Ancestral Apothecary on Friday, January 30th, 4–6 PM at The Legacy Building, 313 South Burdick Street, featuring tea, snacks, and community healing.

Ancestral Apothecary

Hey there, we’re excited to welcome you to the soft opening of Ancestral Apothecary!

This January, we’re introducing a new program rooted in plants, shared knowledge, and ancestral traditions that keep us connected to the land and to one another. This gathering is about honoring the stories and roots of these practices in a way that feels warm, welcoming, and true to who we are.

We’ll share what Ancestral Apothecary is all about and introduce our upcoming series: Ancestral Brew, Heritage Wellness Spa & Lab, and Legacy of Nature—each one focused on preserving cultural heritage and the natural practices that have been carried forward through generations.

There will be tea to sip, light snacks to enjoy, and space to connect, ask questions, and get a feel for how this work shows up in everyday life.

By the end of the evening, you’ll have a sense of what’s ahead. Once the full series begins, we’ll dive deeper into hands-on workshops and learning. For now, this is about gathering, sharing, and celebrating what’s been passed down.

Space is limited to 20 participants.

To inquire or reserve a spot, please email theipsnowcommunity@gmail.com.

We can’t wait to welcome you.

What is Transformation?

Racial healing is at the heart of racial equity. Racial healing is about:

  • the people work that leads to the transformation of systems;
  • the telling of hard truths about past wrongs and present consequences;
  • repairing the harm of racism;
  • replacing the deeply held system that fuels racism with one that sees the inherent value of all people;
  • authentic relationship-building across real and perceived differences.

 

Without racial healing and building trust, changes in policies or practices are short-lived. Through healing and relationship-building, we can collectively develop new values that affect our everyday decisions in areas of policy making, hiring, education and housing – to name just a few.

What is Racial Healing?

Racial healing refers to the process of addressing and repairing the harm caused by racial injustice, discrimination, and systemic oppression.

It involves acknowledging historical and present-day injustices, fostering understanding and empathy across racial divides, and promoting reconciliation, healing, and solidarity among individuals and communities.

Racial healing recognizes the deep-seated trauma and intergenerational impact of racism on individuals, families, and society as a whole, and seeks to create spaces for healing, dialogue, and transformative change.

It encompasses personal, interpersonal, and systemic dimensions, and involves both individual reflection and collective action to address the root causes of racial inequity and promote equity, justice, and belonging for all.

Racial healing is a proactive and ongoing process that requires commitment, compassion, and collaboration from individuals, communities, institutions, and society at large.
