poetry night is tonight! ๐Ÿ“š


Happy Friday Reader!

I'm so glad to see the sun today and am thrilled that the temps here in MA + RI will be up in the FORTIES next week! This has been such a cold winter and it will be so wonderful to see the first signs of spring popping up in the next month or so. I know some of you love winter so keep on loving it, it will definitely still be here for a while!

Despite frigid temps, we are having another warm, cozy, and fun week at Wild Heart Herb House! Each week there is something different going on whether its new products hitting the shelves, a unique Friday night community gathering, or other fun pop ups... and this week is no different!

We are open: Thursday 12-5, Friday 12-8, Saturday 10-3, and by appointment many other days + times. Just send me an email or dm on instagram to schedule!

Tonight, Friday February 21, is our monthly Open Mic Poetry Night with Anomaly Poetry from 7-9 and all day today + tomorrow we have a special Shop Nico's Closet - vintage, new, and gently used clothing sale, everything $5-20!

Poetry Night at Wild Heart is such a beautiful gathering of humans opening up their hearts to share art and innermost thoughts + feelings, its an honor to witness and provide the space for these gatherings. These events are free to open to everyone. You can share poetry or just come to sip tea and listen.

I will share with you this lovely message that I received from Sarah Ferreira, the poet laureate of New Bedford and the host of poetry night at Wild Heart, because I think it perfectly encapsulates the vibe of these special nights.

"I have to say, again - this little spot has a warmth and energy that are undeniable. We had two readers last month who had never shared their work out loud, but felt comfortable and sure they could be themselves in this space. Thank you again for opening your doors to poetry and poets. Weโ€™re so lucky to have this beautiful space."

(insert Nico's heart bursting with happiness about the work she's doing in the world)

And going on this week just for funzies and cause Nico has a realllll hard time letting go of things that have sentimental value, we will be having a clothing sale at the shop, everything $5-20 or make an offer!

Today and tomorrow there will be a rack of vintage, new with tags, and gently used clothing for sale including a brand new Free People dress that never fit me right, amazing wide leg vintage style Guess jeans from the early 2000's, and a floral print vintage kimono style top made in Hawaii! (seriously please come it will make me feel so much better knowing that some of my favorite clothing from the last 20+ years will have a loving new home!)

Ok ok this is getting rambly but two more things!!

ONE - we received a huge shipment of herbal books and zines this week! Body Into Balance by Maria Noel Groves is back in stock, we have copies of The Serviceberry by Robin Wall Kimmerer, Plants Against the Patriarchy Zine, The Wild Unknown Oracle Deck (our first deck that we have ever had for sale at Wild Heart, and its a super potent one, more on that to come), and many more!

TWO - Earth Centered Entrepreneur begins in March! I absolutely LOVE seeing the incredible small biz owners that are signing up for this 3 week mini-course and if you are an anti-capitalist entrepreneur (we will be talking about this in the first class), this program is for you! Connect with other like hearted small business owners to collaborate, learn and grow together! All of the details and sign up link are right here.โ€‹

Ok, just kidding about two more things, THREE - You can now purchase many of our most popular house made herbal products online! Find all my favorite remedies here, including Sinus Relief Steam Blend, Healing Hands Salve, Turmeric Chai Cacao, and Heart Mend Herbal Tea.โ€‹

Thank you thank you so much for supporting Wild Heart Herb House! Whether its shopping online, visiting in person, attending a gathering, leaving a google review, or telling your friends about us, I sooo appreciate your love and support!

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Love, Nico

hi! there's a lot going on at Wild Heart this spring so we have added an "on the calendar" section at the end of each email so you always know what's going on! The first time I attended a local plant walk it completely changed my life. Many years ago I was invited by local herbalist Sarah Berkman to explore a local farm in Portsmouth, Rhode Island to forage for herbs, gather some that interested us, and just be outside with the plants and each other. I brought my then very young son Lennox...
