wah gwan friends?!


We’re so happy to see you again this week and continue our series called, Sacred Smokes! Today, we are discussing Sweetgrass. It is native to North American and used by First Nations/indigenous peoples of North America AND by many Black populations such as the Gullah Geechee. This plant has sooo much to teach us and I hope you are as eager as we are to take on some of those lessons!


Grab ya sweet tea and join us for the ride!
