The Fine Hooked Rugs of Gisele MacHarg are Back

The fabulous fiber art of Gisele MacHarg, South Royalton, is brightening our Art Space once again! As a girl in France, Gisele was inspired by talented family members and on a visit to Le Louvre Museum with her father, the world of art was opened up to her. Many of her pieces, which are made with recycled wool that she hand dyes on her woodstove, reference paintings, often by classical masters. Gisele has been busy creating new hooked rugs for her “Animals Big and Small” show which will be up through February. This fine art is a must see as it is sure to inspire. There is something for everyone and all pieces are for sale. These works make special gifts! You can also check out her website at giselesstudio.com. Supporting local art not only strengthens our local economy, but also our local culture!

Herbal Tonics: Spring Cleansing from Garden to Co-op, a Workshop!
2026-04-25 10:00 - 12:00
As the wheel of the year turns toward the brighter days of Spring, our bodies are ready to shake off the long winter. Spring is the season of renewal and our local plants offer exactly the medicine we need, often growing right at our feet.
In this workshop, we’ll explore the common medicinal and culinary herbal tonics of spring: the plants that emerge from yard, garden, field, and forest just when we need them most. You’ll learn how these plants support digestion, encourage cleansing and detoxification, while helping to restore energy and vitality after the slow, inward months of winter.
We’ll also explore the energetics of the spring season through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine, a time governed by the Wood element, the Liver and Gallbladder, and the return of flowing, outward energy after winter’s stillness. Learn how tending to our vital energy through herbs, food, and movement can ease the irritability, stagnation, and fogginess that often accompany the seasonal turn. Leave with a deeper relationship to the plants around you and practical ways to bring their nourishment into your kitchen and daily life.
Please join us for this fun, community learning opportunity. The cost is $20 per adult. Children 12 and up are welcome and those 12-18 years old are free with an adult. The workshop will be held at the White River Valley School in South Royalton. They graciously partner with us so that we may present our workshops in their beautiful cafeteria and kitchen facilities. Thank you WRVSU!
