2. Are you or your family homeowners or landowners —or— rent middle to high-end properties?
3. Do you own a car —or— comfortably choose not to own one?
4. Are you currently employed at a living wage that meets your everyday essential needs*? — or— If you are not currently employed, non-employment is a choice you've made because you have a safety net of savings, friends & family, or a retirement fund?

~~~ If you answered No to number 1: Solidarity Access
Thank you for your interest in learning with me. In an effort to make the classes I offer fully accessible to people of the global majority, I want to offer you the opportunity to learn these crafts without financial barrier. Simply put, you're welcome to come attend programs I host/teach for free. In other situations, ie. gatherings, I may not be able to provide this fully or at all & will say so when advertising.
~~~ If you answered No to most of the questions, but Yes to number 1: Sustaining Learner
Thank you for selecting the Sustaining Learner rate at a steeply discounted rate that provides you access to learning with me at a minimal amount that allows me to balance the time, cost & effort of offering these programs to you.
~~~ If you answered Yes to about 1/2 of the total questions: Pay-In-Full
Thank you for selecting the Pay-In-Full rate which covers the full cost of the program. 5% is redistributed to organizations listed below.
~~~ If you answered Yes to 3/4 or more of the total questions: Pay-It-Forward
Thank you for selecting the Pay-It-Forward rate which covers the full cost of the program & directly creates opportunities for those with less access to these courses by making access for those interested in these educational opportunities. 5% is also redistributed to organizations listed below.
Donating 5% to Fleur + Forage Free Clinic, a non profit organization I have volunteered for & care deeply about.
Fleur + Forage Free Clinic hosts a monthly herbal clinic & additional pop-ups that focus on providing care for marginalized populations in Atlanta & its surrounding neighborhoods.
If these options aren't sufficient to meet your needs for access to learning these skills, *please!* reach out via the Inquiry form below.
