FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Wise Woman Center in Woodstock, NY, Offers chance to Earn Credit while Learning
Every year the ever-active Wise Woman Center in Woodstock, NY, has work exchange weekends and work/learn days for those wanting to come and learn while conserving cash. This herbal and woman-empowering teaching center is also a working farm with many opportunities to learn and earn credit towards future classes.
For work exchange weekends, participants begin at 10 am with a talking stick ceremony, then work indoors and outdoors in gardens, barn, office, kitchen, and grounds. Join the other women and men for one day or the whole weekend. A delicious vegetarian lunch is the “thank you” for your help, plus, you receive cash or credit good towards dinner and an overnight stay, books or classes.
The work/learn days combine both the work and the learning into one full day. In exchange for helping with chores for 4-5 hours, you get lunch and a two-hour class with Susun Weed. There is no fee!
The dates for the 2009 Work Exchange Weekends are:
April 11 & 12, July 4 & 5. September 5 & 6, October 31 & November 1, November 7 & 8, and November 21 & 22.
The Work/Learn Days this year are held:
April 19, May 30, May 31, June 13, June 14, August 1, August 2, August 15, August 16, September 27, October 17, and October 18.

Founded twenty years ago by internationally acclaimed author and herbalist Susun Weed, the Wise Woman Center exists with the purpose of offering a safe space for women to rediscover the Wise Woman Way. Nestled in deep magical woods and located between Woodstock and Saugerties, 5 miles from the NYS Thruway, the Wise Woman Center is easily accessible while still private. Studies include plant identification, herbal medicine, cancer prevention, women and chanting, goddess belly dancing, and feeding the creative spirit.
