Herbs and Crystals for Spiritual Protection - Jeannie Francis
My mother and I have been trained as Reflexologist, Herbalists and Reiki since 1972. My mother has since retired from the work. But, I have watching with a curious eye as the health field has very much been evolving in the USA. We are now attending to the body as a whole, not just medically treating it as a part.
Reflexology, Reiki and Herbal Healing all work hand in hand to help improve the bodies balance and bring calm to the body. My clients have come to me with a variety of issues from nervous disorders, allergies, cancer issues, pain issues, to helping young mom’s, to induce labor. I have been amazed myself at the out come of body changes due to a Reflexology Treatment.
The healing center that I have opened in Cinnaminson, will be offering Reflexology, Reiki, Herbal treatments and more. We offer workshops, classes, meditation sessions and have other medical modalities, offered by other practitioners.
I am also a Master Gardener, I am known for my heirloom organic tomato plants, edible flowers, herb plants, which all go on sale Mother’s Day weekend. I do may gardening workshops, lead garden tours, grow all organic produce, make organic body products such as soaps, massage oils, body lotions, salves, lip balms and ointments, which I sell from the Center, by word of mouth or on-line.

Awen du Duwia: Channeling Brigid - by Bard Dafydd, Vela, and Cath of Red Oak Grove ADF
Channeling is the practice of intentionally allowing a spiritual being to temporarily inhabit your body and mind, usually for the purpose of communication with an audience. Since 1997 the members of Red Oak Grove have been practicing this ancient technique with amazing results. The information we have received from Brigedd, Lleu, Rhainnon, Math ap Mathonwy & Cernunnos has been incredibly powerful..AND entertaining! Join us for an hour as some of our Channelers tell personal stories about these profound experiences. Presented by Bard Dafydd, Vela Chandra and Cath Eirian.
Bard Dafydd is the Senior Druid of Red Oak Grove, ADF. He’s a professional trainer, storyteller, and speaker. Within ADF he has held the offices of Vice ArchDruid, Chief of the Council of Senior Druids, Chief of the Welsh Kin, Chief Seer and Chief Bard – but not all at the same time! He has been presenting rituals, lectures and workshops at Neo-Pagan events for 20 years.
Vela Chandra is an officer and member of Red Oak Grove, ADF. She joined both the Grove and ADF in June 2013 and was elected Grove Scribe in August 2015. Vela is a NJ Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and also a childbirth educator and doula. Her two beautiful sons can often be found at Grove events with her and her husband Vicente, who is also a member of Red Oak Grove and ADF
Cath Eirian (Welsh for Bright Cat) is a Tylwyth of Red Oak Grove and has served as ROG's Scribe from August 2012-August 2015. Cath is also a proud Ovate in the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids. She is fueled by her love and passion for her husband, cat-sons, Druidry, cosplay, and the smell of books. Come talk to her about liminal spaces, archetypes, and general geekery!

The Pagan Connection with Gaia Stewardship - Amy Wright
Since the dawn of being, our ancestors were in tune with the cycles and rhythms of the natural world, from moon cycles, to rain cycles, to the interminable progression of season after season. Modern-day conveniences have virtually nullified the relationship between Human and Gaia. However, as Pagans, we are drawn to the cycles of our ancestors. join us for a discussion on how today's Pagan community can strengthen the bond and stewardship between us and the natural world that supports our existence. We will touch on suburban sustainability, environmental responsibility, and how not to fall prey to green-washing and eco-shaming.
Amy Wright has been an environmental activist since she was a wee lass. She went on to get a piece of paper supporting that fact, graduating with a Bachelor's in Environmental Science from the University of Florida. She currently works as an environmental consultant for the real estate industry and serves as an advisor for the Commercial Township Environmental Commission. She lives in Millville with her husband, who is constantly hearing "Don't throw that away! It's recyclable/compostable/reusable!" and the cat, who is constantly hearing "Don't eat the bees!"
