Partners and Community Projects
Stone Cabin Collective
The Stone Cabin Collective hosts Elder Wellness Week, a week-long free holistic pop up clinic around the Black Mesa/Big Mountain area, as well as at the Stone Cabin at the Smiths’. At a typical clinic day, elders and youngsters can get supportive teas and supplements from an herbalist, receive a massage or energy work to help soothe body pain, soak their feet with medicinal herbs, or get an acupuncture treatment. Volunteer at an upcoming clinic or get dates of the upcoming clinic to visit with us.
Cutting Root donates bulk dried herbs for tea blends and some of our classes and programs help to make salves for the clinic <3
Flowers for Black Beloveds
In 2014 a group of community members came together to celebrate Black women and girls, and honor ourselves as we mourned the loss of Teaira Whitehead. We continue to ask #WhatHappenedtoTeairaWhitehead because we will never forget our dear sibling nor any of the Black women, girls, femmes, MAGES and people impacted by gender-based violence. We commit to and will continue to do the life-affirming work of giving Black folks our flowers while we are here. We will honor our beauty, dynamism, and resilience in all of our manifestations!
In 2019, Cutting Root Farm began to collaborate with the Black Unicorn Library Project to deliver flowers to Black women (Trans, gender-expansive, fluid, cis) girls, femmes, masculine of center folks, non-binary people, and/or MaGes (people of Marginalized Genders). Fill out this form to request flowers, plant medicines, flower seeds or to gift them to someone else. We are growing this project with our cut flower garden in East Liberty where flowers are available in season. Please contact us if you would like to volunteer or support this project.
