    • 05-08-2025

      Frog Hollow and Unity Net Host Planting of the Global (Juniper) Tree of Peace and ReconciliationJune 15, 2025 – Frog Hollow Sacred Gardens On June 15, 2025, Frog Hollow, in collaboration with Unity Net, hosted a meaningful and ceremonial planting of the Global (Juniper) Tree of Peace and Reconciliation at the Frog Hollow Sacred Gardens. The event began at sunrise with a Sacred Pipe Ceremony, setting a reverent and intentional tone for the gathering. Community members, peace advocates, spiritual leaders, and supporters came together in reflection and prayer, honoring traditions of reconciliation, unity, and respect for the Earth. The planting of the Juniper tree symbolized purification, protection, endurance, and spiritual connection. As part of Unity Net’s broader global peace initiative, the tree joins a growing international network of plantings dedicated to healing divisions and promoting harmony across cultures and communities.  Frog Hollow provided the sacred garden setting and the “Cosmic Tipi” space for the ceremony, reinforcing its ongoing commitment to cultural awareness, environmental stewardship, and community-centered initiatives. The ceremony was led by hand drums and sacred songs, followed by a healing sound bath that deepened the spirit of reflection and wellbeing. Central to Frog Hollow’s mission is the identification and protection of our local watersheds, recognizing that the health of our water is inseparable from the health of our communities and future generations. Through the vision of the Frog Hollow Art Experience, the organization fosters learning through the arts—creating opportunities for cultural expression, hands-on creativity, and experiential education that connect people more deeply to the land, to one another, and to shared traditions. The collaboration highlighted the powerful intersection of nature, spirituality, artistic expression, and collective action in advancing peace. The Global (Juniper) Tree of Peace and Reconciliation now stands as a living symbol of hope, unity, shared responsibility, and stewardship of the land and waters for future generations. For more information about future events and initiatives, please contact Frog Hollow.

    0 Workshops

    FEATHER FAN WORKSHOP     I am offering a sacred space and my guidance to explore the ‘wisdom of feathers’ and make a smudge fan or a smudge feather along the way. At this in-structural workshop you will be supported in the creation of your fan and more importantly learn about traditional and contemporary understandings of ‘meaning of feathers’; proper handling and care; understandings by diverse cultural awareness and also tune to your own intuitive cognitions with the nature of this offering.  All materials are inclusive, including feathers, natural hide & coloured, crystals, beads etc.. You are also welcome to bring you special feather or decorative element if you have some to include in your creation.   Duration of the workshop 2 hr.        Investment: $70   Meaning of Feathers The Meaning of Feathers plays an important role in the awareness of many cultures. Most understanding embodies the spiritual idea that all natural things within the universe, including birds have spirits forms. That spirit exist, not only in humans, but also in birds (they imprint their fluidal energy onto their feathers) and in animals, plants,  and all living beings. The doctrine is that everything is alive, and possesses an inherent virtue, power and wisdom. The generalized meaning of feathers signified honour & connected the carrier with the Creation and the bird whose feathers came from. Feathers are perceived as gifts from the sky, the sea and the trees. Feathers arrive unexpectedly, but not without purpose.   Birds were revered as bringers of messages and symbols of change and often symbolized light-hearted freedom, their feathers have many spiritual, ceremonial & ritual uses. Decorated feathers were sometimes attached to sacred objects and tools, in the ancient culture and traditions of First Nations the meaning of feathers are inextricably tied to the understanding that birds, as spirit guides, appear through different stages of life to a person, teaching and guiding them, and in some instances protecting them. The meaning of birds and their feathers are of great significance as they are considered to possess Creational energetic powers that can embody, attach and influence a person, empowering them with the powerful traits, attributes and characteristics of the bird.    At the duration of this workshop we will also discus meanings of birds and observe information of the significance of each bird’s attributes and symbolism. Also learn about the purpose, teachings and proper ways of ‘smudging’ and handling sacred objects.  All ages are invited to attend this fun feather crafting afternoon at SpirolGate of Art & Wellbeing by, Biljana Webb   STAINED GLASS WORKSHOP Educational hands on workshop with Whirling Wisdom Studio.
