Rivers tell stories. They rumble & murmur, roar & soar. The mountains sing, wind swirling along their peaks & valleys. Every stone is a life.

We live among mysteries much older & miraculous than we are, & we can only hope to catch up to what these beings are telling us some day. Perhaps, water has memory, soil remembers our touch, & when our voice echoes in a valley, something hears it after all.

This band is a bridge to a universe beyond the living—where rainbows curve in an alien language, oceans reveal deep portals to a world under our world, & we,

Each of us

Are made up

Of stardust.

WE beyond US

each thread has a story to share…

Only WE, humans, are conscious. WE are intelligent. WE have feelings & families & histories…

All of these beliefs have been challenged & it means that “WE” need to expand beyond the human realm & imagine a new way of co-existing in this world. To accept this shift in our consciousness—to always be becoming—is our essence.

Like a cocooned caterpillar, the blossoming bud, water flowing downriver, or the continuous rounding of a stone—there is a tender beauty in evolving.

These bands are also ever-evolving—a bond from the transforming ecosystem in our farm to the quiet changes in all of us. “Pay attention to the transformation within & without,” they seem to say. It will surprise & nourish us on this journey.

Plantable & Gender-Inclusive Seed Bands handcrafted from non-Gnentically-Modified & Intellectual-Property-Rights-free naturally dyed & hand-spun yarn of organically grown, Indigenous cotton. Plantable Seed Papers on which bands are wrapped are handmade, up-cycled & biodegradable.
