A little about Amber;
Amber Battles is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance. Having completed 200 hours with Hot Yoga Aptos and an additional 100 hour advanced training with Hannah Muse working towards completing 500 hrs by spring 2019.

Amber believes yoga to be a sacred practice, a discipline that acts as a remembrance and an unraveling of our true nature that tends to get buried by our busy lives. It is the cultivating of awareness, presence and consciousness through pranayama, meditation and asana.

1.5 hours of yoga and 30 minute farm tour. $30 per person. Refreshments provided.

Orion Langdon will be bringing his micaceous clay cookware from Northern New Mexico for a special sale & show! Kin & Kitchen will craft a seasonal meal using clay cookware and serve us a feast on the farm followed by the pottery sale.

Orion makes hand coiled cooking vessels and cups from clay harvested in the wild, generous mountains of his current home. Orion’s work is one of many iterations of the ever evolving, centuries old tradition of pottery making in New Mexico. Micaceous clay cooking pots are beautiful, durable, hold heat well and can be used in the oven or directly on the stove-top. Orion will be showing his work, answering questions about this clay body, serving food cooked in micaceous pots and making his wares available for sale.

3-hour event is $85.00 per person.

We are also looking for volunteers, who would like to participate in the event and help us with the logistics of putting it on (you can attend for free)!
