Ignite green tea’s luminous clarity in this guided tasting class. Together we will mindfully explore its story through flavor, reflection, and conversation, discovering how each expression connects us to serenity and the vibrant wisdom within nature. This gathering is offered with a suggested contribution of $35. In the spirit of inclusivity and balance, you are welcome to offer what feels right for you, whether that is $35, $25, or more if you have the means. Contributions above the suggested amount help make this experience accessible to those with financial need and sustain the ongoing care and energy poured into holding spaces like this. Every offering, whether financial or energetic, affirms the value of community supported education. We also acknowledge the systemic barriers that have long limited access for BIPOC communities. To honor this, a $15 option is available for BIPOC participants who would benefit from it. This is one way we commit to equity, ensuring that diversity is not only welcomed but essential to the richness of the experience. If the listed prices are still a barrier, please reach out directly. I am more than willing to work with you to ensure that tea remains within reach for all who feel called to share in it. All are welcome here. You are invited to arrive exactly as you are and take part in a space rooted in openness, care, and community, a living space where each presence is valued. Together we will grow through the shared beauty of tea, reflection, and connection. To help us hold a mindful and welcoming space, we ask participants to be considerate of sensory sensitivities by avoiding strong fragrances. This space is held with gentle awareness, where we honor our own needs as well as those of others. By arriving with openness, care, and respect for each person’s boundaries, we create a shared atmosphere where meditation, tea, and queer belonging can flourish. In the spirit of reciprocity and uplifting community together, five dollars from each participant will be donated to Q Center, a nonprofit that supports LGBTQ2SIA+ communities through advocacy, resources, and safe spaces, embodying tea’s spirit of connection, reflection, healing, and belonging. This gathering is guided by D’Guar (They/Them), a trans person of color, tea guide, and community weaver rooted in Portland, Oregon. Their journey has been devoted to exploring the depth and spirit of Camellia sinensis through mindful practice, story, and shared ritual. Through Water Fairy Tea, they cultivate spaces where tea becomes a bridge into presence, nature, and belonging. Their offerings blend learning with reverence, inviting participants to meet tea not just as a drink, but as a living companion in personal discovery, collective care, and connection with the natural world. We acknowledge that this work takes place on the traditional lands of the Multnomah, Clackamas, Chinook, Kathlamet, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, and many other Indigenous ancestors and communities. We honor their enduring presence, care, and wisdom, and offer gratitude to the land and to the people who have tended it since time immemorial.

ATTENTION ALL TRANS-MASCS! Come join us for our very first Trans-Mascs Meet Up potluck! In celebration of the holiday’s, this will be the first of TWO holiday inspired events so you do not want to miss them! I felt a huge loss of community when I transitioned so I created this space to where you can come to socialize and hang out with other trans-mascs! Trans-Mascs Meet Up is a safe space where you don't have to prove you are trans enough. This space is inclusive of nonbinary, gender expansive, and other diverse trans masculine identities. You can come as you are and enjoy company with others like you! I’m SUPER excited to share this space with you all. Come bring a dish and be with community this holiday season! You do not need to bring food to participate in this event but it’s encouraged! Sign ups are not required but highly encouraged especially if you are choosing to bring a dish. If you know anyone who might be interested, please share this information with them!
