Let's make a spell jar with herbs and gemstones! Kate Parker will share information on color, gem, and herb correspondences, and how to blend them into a powerful intention. Kate will tell stories about the use of spell jars and how they can be created and used. Once we fill the jars with our spring herbs and intentions, we will seal them with wax and empower our intentions to take home and add a little magic to our daily life. You are welcome to bring your own jar to the workshop.

ABOUT KATE PARKER

Kate Parker is a theater director, performer, folk herbalist, and practicing kitchen witch living in Western Massachusetts. She grew up in Southeastern Idaho where she dreamed of working in the film industry. As a teen she studied at summer programs in film at UCLA and moved to Oregon to attend college at the University of Oregon. When they dropped their film program, Kate moved to Los Angeles to follow her dream and began working in the industry.

She met her husband, a musician, in 1994 and they embarked on a musical adventure spanning many years, several bands, and a million miles on the road. She toured Europe in the summers and worked with a theater company producing and directing several productions at home in Prescott, Arizona during the rest of the year. Kate also founded and directed a seasonal youth theater program where children created the script, built sets, designed costumes, and performed their play at the end of the 8-week session. 

Kate found a love of natural medicine and plant remedies at a young age when a healer taught her the magic of People Paste, a fantastic DIY 3 ingredient powdered herb remedy to plaster wounds and avoid stitches. She has been crafting magic ever since. She is a self taught folk herbalist and is continually learning more. Her favorite plant allies are yarrow and marshmallow. 

When COVID hit, she returned to school to finish her BFA in theater and performance art. She graduated college the same month her daughter graduated high school. In 2023 the family packed up and moved to New England. Her daughter is now attending Hampshire College and Kate and her husband are integrating into the community in the Pioneer Valley.
