❄️ MARKET SEASON DOESN’T HAVE TO END! ❄️

Keep local businesses going. Keep your sales yours. 💚

Open Circle and COATI Uprise are coming together to help sustain our local vendor ecosystem through the colder months and bring more foot traffic to the small businesses that call COATI home.

We’re vendors ourselves. We know how hard the slow months can be, and we believe a winter market should help businesses make it through them.

Our Warehouse Winter Market offers:

🌱 Free applications. You won’t pay just to be considered.

🌱 Booth fees that never exceed $35. That’s an Open Circle promise.

🌱 No commission on sales. Beyond your booth fee, what you earn stays with your business.

🌱 A straightforward application process. No required vendor handbook to read before applying.

We’re welcoming farmers and winter growers, fresh produce vendors, bakers, local food producers, artists, artisans, and makers, along with select locally offered services. We’re especially looking for winter growers and fresh produce vendors!

To keep the market focused on locally grown food, handmade goods, and independent creative businesses, we won’t be accepting MLMs, direct-sales companies, or corporate sales and lead-generation booths such as window replacement and home-improvement sales.

📍 Indoors at COATI, 514 S. Tejon St., Colorado Springs
🗓 Sundays, November through February
⏰ 9 AM–2 PM

This collaboration is about giving local businesses a place to keep showing up—and giving our community more opportunities to support them all winter long.

✨ Something a little different is coming to Colorado Springs...

On August 29th, I'll be joining an incredible group of local makers, practitioners, and creators for Waning & Grounding: A Post-Eclipse Gathering.

This isn't just a market.

It's an entire day created around what comes after the intensity—the space where we slow down, integrate, reconnect, and find our footing again.

Throughout the day you'll find tea, sound healing, movement, creativity, henna, herbal experiences, aromatherapy, workshops, local makers, treats, and plenty of opportunities to simply explore.

🌿 And I'm especially excited because Celestial Roots Co. will be opening the gathering with a grounding practice and tea, creating a moment for us to arrive together before moving into everything the day has to offer.

✨ Waning & Grounding: A Post-Eclipse Gathering
📅 Saturday, August 29
⏰ 11am–5pm
📍 Lil Witch Academy | 432 W. Fillmore, Colorado Springs
🎟️ FREE admission
✨RSVP Here: https://www.facebook.com/share/19Rdk2b5La/

Come for an experience. Wander the makers. Try something new. Meet some really cool humans.

And maybe leave feeling a little more grounded than when you arrived. 🌿✨

10/16/2026

We talk a lot about portals.

Eclipses. Full moons. Big shifts. Moments that illuminate something we couldn't quite see before.

But what happens after?

After something moves through you?
After something becomes visible?
After you've released what was ready to go?

We integrate.

We come back into our bodies.
We tend to what remains.
We make space for what has changed.
We reconnect with the practices, people, and little rituals that help us find our footing again.

Because sometimes the transformation isn't in the moment everything shifts.

Sometimes it's in what we choose to do with it afterward.

🌿Waning & Grounding: A Post-Eclipse Gathering was created for that space.

On August 29th, we'll gather for a day of tea, sound, movement, creativity, sensory experiences, intentional shopping, and community—all centered around slowing down, grounding, and integrating after the intensity of eclipse season.

I'll be there with Celestial Roots Co., and I'll also be opening our day together with a grounding practice and tea.

✨ Saturday, August 29 | 11am–5pm
🌿 Lil Witch Academy | 432 W. Fillmore, Colorado Springs
🎟️ FREE admission

Come exactly as you are.

Let's see what remains when the dust settles. 🌙🌿

10/16/2026

Before we shop.
Before we create.
Before we move through everything the day has to offer...

We're going to arrive.

In our bodies.
In this moment.
With whatever happens to be here.

This photo was taken during one of my own moments of grounding and connection. I wasn't trying to get anywhere. I wasn't trying to change what I was feeling. I was simply allowing myself to be fully present with it.

And sometimes... that means tears.
Because there's a difference between physically showing up somewhere and actually arriving.

On August 29th, I'll be opening Waning & Grounding: A Post-Eclipse Gathering with tea and a grounding practice—a moment for us to settle into ourselves before stepping into everything the day has to offer.

After periods of intensity, change, release, or heightened energy, I think there's something powerful about not immediately asking:

What's next?

But instead asking:
Where am I now?

So we'll begin there.

Feet on the ground.
Tea in our hands.
Breath in our bodies.
Nothing to accomplish.
Just a moment to arrive. 🌿

Then you're free to wander into an entire day of sound, creativity, movement, herbal experiences, workshops, makers, community, and whatever else calls to you.

Come exactly as you are. We'll start there. 💚
