Sweetgrass Medicine Workshop with Roots +Raven

We warmly welcomer Tanya Gluvakov, founder of Roots + Raven, a self-care brand grounded in the principles of Indigenous plant medicines, land stewardship, and respectful knowledge sharing.

Together we will learn about the deep cultural and medicinal significance of Sweetgrass - a plant long honoured for welcoming, cleansing, and prayer - and craft your own sweetgrass infusion mist to take home. You will leave not only with a handcrafted botanical mist, but with a deeper relationship to the plant itself: its story, its teachings, and its quiet medicine.

All materials provided. No experience needed. Just come as you are.

We recognize that the land we learn and play on is the traditional territory of Indigenous peoples. As a small gesture of reciprocity and relationship, we offer a 50% access code for Indigenous participants. If it supports your participation, please feel welcome to use the code: INDIGENOUSACCESS during checkout.

About Tanya

Tanya Gluvakov is a mixed Mohawk woman with family roots in Six Nations of the Grand River in Ohsweken, Ontario. Raised in Toronto, she now works to support the resurgence of traditional plant medicines and to make them accessible within urban communities.

Through her teaching, Tanya offers workshops about medicines from the land and how relationship with plants can help guide us back to balance and belonging. She is an herbalist, mother, teacher, auntie, and the founder of Roots + Raven.

Tanya grows and harvests many of the medicines from her own garden, while others are gathered in a respectful way from the land. Her offerings - both products and experiences - are created to help people slow down, find moments of peace, and remember their connection to all living things.

“Our hope is for our community members to remember that they are never alone - we are all connected to each other and to the natural world.”

May these handcrafted offerings and gatherings invite you to rest, breathe, and remember your place here.
