<div>Temple of Earth Apothecary is a joyful place! An infrastructure of integrity to our mother earth; A channel for the brightest vibrations of our lineages, our people, of all beings; A space of self-inquiry and transformation; A house of evolving ancestral connection; A refuge for Black/Native people; A temple for raising collective vibrations; A current of impossible remembering; A promise to hold down our home planet, to maintain our root, to bear down between worlds as our seeds spread roots amongst the stars.
