Choco Fungi Latte

Fall Favorite: Choco Fungi Latte

Listen to the rain and get cozy with this warm, frothy beverage while you enjoy the wonders of Mushroom Season in the PNW!

This feels like a fancy beverage you’d savor at a favorite coffee shop, but your DIY version rivals that of any pro barista.

Make your own — this is enough for you and a pal:

  • Warm 16 oz milk of your choice (the fattier the frothier — I like whole cow milk, but cashew, almond, or coconut are also great choices)

Pour warmed milk into your blender along with:

  • 1 to 2 Tbs of raw cacao powder, depending on how strong you like your chocolatey-ness
  • 1 to 2 Tbs maple syrup, depending on how sweet you like your sweets
  • A combined 2 tsp of powdered medicinal mushrooms. What kind? There are many choices available from your favorite herb shop or natural foods store. Reishi, turkey tail, chaga, cordyceps, and shiitake are all excellent!
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp cardamom
  • pinch of sea salt

Now is the MOST IMPORTANT PART: Put the lid on your blender! (I speak from experience here, this is critical)

Blend on your highest power until ultra frothy, pour in a gorgeous handmade ceramic mug, and enjoy!

❄️🌿❄️ Walk along with us to visit our p ❄️🌿❄️ Walk along with us to visit our plant pals on this snowy day

#humboldtcounty #redwoodforest #herbwalk #snowday #herbschool
💧We’re dipping a pinky toe in the podcasting 💧We’re dipping a pinky toe in the podcasting pool!

We’ll be sharing tales from our Herb School on the North Coast of California, take you on Herb Walks, and chat with inspiring people collaborating with plants to create art, medicine, community, and so much more.

In this first episode Dandelion’s co-directors, Allison Poklemba @earth2allison and Jessica Shepherd @shepherdspursebotanicals, sip tea and reflect on the evolution of their relationships with plants, and the completion of their first year carrying Dandelion’s founder, Jane Bothwell’s, hefty and illuminating teaching torch.

In the flow of their conversation you’ll get a sense of the joy, the wonder, and the meaning that fills both their tea cups through the good work of connecting people with plants for healing & happiness, and for community connection & nature connection.

We invite you to take a listen
at our L I N K

(Spotify is being glitchy, but 🤞that bit will work soon!)

P.S. Choosing a name for this project was HARD, but then @kristensmith436 told me that “Diaries are sexy!!! Full of magic and secrets!” so how could we not go with Dandelion Diaries?!?

💚 Loving you all!

An Imbolc Ritual - 🌱- Sprouting Our Potential An Imbolc Ritual - 🌱- Sprouting Our Potential

You always take me by surprise, Spring.

And it is always Elderberry who is the first to catch my breath with your announcement: pair of fresh, day-glow green leaves bursting forth from a gray skeleton of a shrub.

In the moment it seems so unexpected.

Weren’t we just playing in the snow up on the mountain?

Aren’t we still in get-cozy-and-hibernate mode?

Half of my being shouts “Wait! Slow down. I’m not ready!” while the other is tugged joyfully towards garden daydreams.

If you are feeling the energy of this in-between time as well, then you are right on schedule.

The halfway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox falls on (roughly) February 1st.

As vibrant energy rises upwards from the roots of our plant allies and their shoots begin to grow with fervor, we can infuse this energy into our own lives as well.

We invite you to try this simple, meditative sprouting ritual…

🌱 Find the step by step at our @dandelionherbalcenter L I N K

Now go ahead stretch those dormant parts of yourself that want to grow, and heal, and blossom. May they be awakened like vibrant sprouting seeds!

We begin Feb. 11‼️ Sign up with a pal and save We begin Feb. 11‼️ Sign up with a pal and save $150!

We've been told that this class experience is like a weekend retreat each month for 10 months.

Honestly for the last 23 years Dandelion Herbal Center has felt like my sanctuary.

When you come to class, you come to a sanctuary—the experience truly fills your cup.

When we head out on amazing field trips to the tide pools, to the herb farms, to the mountain tops, we carry that sense of sanctuary with us.

💚+💚 Because everything is more fun with a friend, sign up with a pal and you'll each save $150!

Just use the coupon code PLANTPAL at checkout and be sure to tell us your friend's name.

Our small class size means we form a tight group of Plant Pals that stay connected for YEARS after class.

After all, that's how Jessica and I met in the year 2000!

☺️ It also means if you're interested you should save your spot ASAP.

This monthly deep dive for the passionate herb student takes a body systems approach to plant medicine and includes the types of field trips Herbalists dream of!

Hope to include you in our class sanctuary!

Tap our L I N K or send us a DM for all the details 💚

With love,
Allison

P.S. You’re welcome to repeat this class! If you’re coming back for round 2, Use code HERBNERD to save 10%.
