Programs & Initiatives

Hudson Area Library Residency

We started our on-going residency at Hudson Area Library in the Spring of 2022 providing monthly free clinics in the community room. An average of 30 free acupuncture treatments are administered at each clinic. We distribute various herbal medicine preparations (tea’s, tincture’s, salve’s, etc), harm reduction supplies (NARCAN, test strips, safe use kits), and educational materials.

Columbia County Jail Residency

Our on going residency at Columbia County Jail started in Spring of 2023. We provide free acupuncture treatments to incarcerated community members Wednesday and Friday mornings, with well over 25 individuals who have participated in our program since inception. We have also been able to support many of the program participants through re-entry - crowd sourcing funds for clothing, phones, and other essentials needed upon release, rides to appointments and court dates, and frequent wellness checks. Several folks from our program have also started volunteering at our monthly library clinics post-release.

Education For All Ages

We host free seasonal plant walks and medicine making workshops in collaboration with Hudson Area Library and City of Hudson Youth Department. We aim to connect Hudson residents deeper to the natural world, encourage land stewardship and work with plants that are familiar and abundant in our bioregion.
