10AM to 11AM

The Tarot Court with Snorri from Other Hand Tarot

Other Hand Tarot is Almonte’s local tarot reader. Join Snorri for her classes, workshops, and readings, and experience how tarot can shift your perspective, not by telling the future but by providing a mirror to see what you are missing. Snorri holds a Ph.D. in medieval literature from the University of Toronto. Like poetry, tarot is an interpretive exploration and a form of self expression. Tarot is never a substitute for critical thinking, common sense, science, or therapy. In fact, these areas of enquiry have enriched our tarot literacy over the past 25 years.
Within the tarot deck are 16 court cards, often thought to be the most difficult or unapproachable cards in the deck. Yet building a relationship with the court cards gives us access to new insights and allies as we learn to listen to their advice. This workshop will introduce 16 participants to the tarot court cards and we’ll practice some strategies for reading with them. Whether you are tarot curious or would like to deepen your tarot practice, all are welcome to join us.

Make sure you also stop by Snorri’s booth for a personal reading!

11AM to 12PM

In to the Forest with Melissa from Honeybee Homestead

Hi, I’m Melissa, the Honeybee that lives and breathes life into The Homestead. I’ve flown a distance to be here, from the suburbs of Toronto, to city living, to becoming a permanent resident and rural bumpkin. I’m so grateful to have landed here, in Lanark Highlands, and to call this place HOME!
Growing up in the suburbs of Toronto, I had no idea it would lead me to homesteading. Then again, homesteading can happen just about anywhere, as it’s more of a lifestyle and a mindset in modern days, rather than being attached to a certain landscape - at least that’s how I see it.
I fell in love nature and working with the land after a farm internship in 2009. With each season, my relationship deepens. Befriending plants, learning ways to be more self-sufficient, and creating and living life on my own terms, continues to be part of my journey.
Before moving to Honeybee Homestead, community development and arts facilitation were my jam. I worked with groups of children, youth, adults, and seniors, across the country and abroad, in gardens and kitchens, after-school groups building life skills, teaching adaptable and community dance classes, and leading children’s arts and dance camp at MERA Schoolhouse in McDonalds Corners for two years.
In more recent years, foraging and finding ways to give back to the land have stoked my internal fires. My teachings are from the knowledgeable folks at The Sacred Gardener, Chris Outdoors, and many herbalists at Heartwood Herbal Gathering - plus endless books, podcasts and on-going courses. Connecting with the plant people is one of my doors to staying in connection with the world at large.
My insatiable curiosity has me enrolled indefinitely in the School of Life. I’m always researching, learning, and approaching life as an experiment. It keeps things spicy and feeds me! When you visit The Homestead, you’ll get to see these many facets.
No matter what I find myself doing, connection and relationships are at the heART.
In to the Forest
Are you ready to slow down and hang out in the forest? We'll meet in the field, wander into the woods together, and open our senses before we meet the plants. Our time together is about relating to our plant friends and being open to receiving whatever messages they have for you. An easeful journey into our local ecosystem awaits. Beginners and seasoned nature lovers welcome. You may be surprised what you discover.

1PM to 2PM

Aufguss 101 with Catie Clapp from Milly’s Ministry

Catie has been working with art and science of breathing for many years now. She became very curious about nervous system regulation and how it affected all other systems of the body. She delved into somatic experiencing and hypnotic states of healing in order to learn and teach others how to naturally heal themselves from all types of pain (physical, emotional, mental and relationships). Moving from a state of survival means we can thrive and create our own realities!
Aufguss 101 — Introduction to the Art of Sauna Ceremony
Overview Learn the basics of aufguss in this energetic, hands-on class designed for beginners and curious sauna-goers. Aufguss is a ceremonial practice from European spa culture that uses aromatic steam, fan techniques and rhythm to intensify heat, enhance breathing, and create a shared sensory experience. This session is meant to be a fun introduction to towel waving, a major role in Aufguss Ceremony.
Expect some hands-on practice, a little theatrical flair, and plenty of high-fives. Come ready to learn, laugh, and leave feeling warmer — in body and spirit.

Unity Field with Len McMurrer from Inner U Wellness

My journey into energy and spiritual healing began with a life-altering experience in the mid-1970s. As a young man, I gave little thought to concepts like guardian angels or divine intervention—until I found myself trapped underwater, caught in debris, and certain I was going to drown. Inexplicably, I surfaced, unharmed and unable to logically explain how. That moment opened my mind to the possibility that something greater was watching over me, though at the time, I moved on without fully exploring its meaning.
Decades later, around 2015, I read The Missing Pill by Dr. John Ryan, MD. The book introduced me to Energy Healing and offered a bridge between science and the metaphysical. It resonated deeply with me and rekindled memories of my near-death experience. A few years afterward, I attended a Unity Field Healing practitioner training with Dr. Ryan—a course I initially hadn’t planned to take. The experience was transformative and even alleviated a persistent shoulder issue I’d been dealing with. From that point on, Energy Healing became an integral part of my life.
My path became even clearer after reading Urban Shaman by Dr. Serge Kahili King. I knew then that, upon retirement, I was meant to pursue a new chapter in Energy and Shamanic Healing. I began intensive training through the Foundation for Shamanic Studies and received certifications as a Shamanic Practitioner and in Level 2 Reiki.
After a fulfilling 39.5-year career with Transport/NAV Canada, I retired in 2020. The global pause due to COVID-19 delayed my plans, but once the world reopened, I was ready to begin this new calling.
Today, alongside my loving wife Joan) I’m proud to introduce Inner U Wellness. Joan offers Unity Field Healing (UFH), Reflexology, and Tuning Fork Therapy. I provide services in UFH, Reiki, and Shamanic Healing, helping clients restore balance, insight, and well-being on their healing journey.
Len will be providing mini sessions in Unity Field Healing and speak on his Shamanic and Reiki Practice at the Inner U Wellness booth!
