fun things on the calendar


hello friend,

just a quick update and reminder about what's on the calendar.

Music

IT Live: I'll be going live on Insight Timer at 7pm CT Wednesday. Click here for more info, to get your time zone and put it on your calendar.

Community Song Circle: This is a monthly gathering on third Saturdays from 5-7 at Hot Spot Music, 801 Division Street in Northfield. We join our voices together to nourish our connections with ourselves, each other and the Earth at a time when none of these is to be taken for granted. All voices welcome, no singing experience needed. Let me know if you would like to try your hand at leading a song! Snacks provided. Donations welcomed but not required.

Basket/Creativity events

Bring whatever you're working on and let's work side by side on our crafts. This month I'm working hard on making tiny baskets because I'll be selling them at the River Walk Farmer's Market in October.

For the week beginning September 6 2026, there are two scheduled co-working meetups:

When:

4-6 PM Thursday

1:30-3 Friday (coincides with Crafternoon).

Where: on the patio behind Little Joy Coffee, and on Google Meet.

If it rains or gets too windy(which dries out materials too fast and makes weaving not as fun) we'll make a decision in the moment whether to go indoors based on whether there's space, or reschedule. Click here to sign up for notifications of any changes or spontaneous meetups and to get the Google Meet link, if you're joining virtually.

And if you don't know how to weave a basket yet, you can learn during my tiny basket workshop beginning October 8. spaces limited. sign up to save your spot. ​

Tiny Basket Workshop

Discover the art of tiny basket weaving using natural, foraged materials and an ancient twining technique. Space is limited.

Oct. 28 through Nov. 7

I look forward to creating alongside you!

with blessings and joy,

Trina

Dear Reader, happy Saturday!! we're getting some glorious rain here in Minnesota and I'm enjoying how cozy it feels inside. There's a lot on the calendar so far for the next couple of months. I hope I get to see you for one or more of my events. And a bit of housekeeping . . . If you came here for the baskets and are wondering why I’m talking about my music, Or if you came here for music and are wondering what is all this blah blah about baskets and creativity, I understand that what I’m up...

hi friends, wow it got chilly all of a sudden!! feels like cozy basket weaving weather. I'll be weaving baskets starting at 1:30pm on Friday. Weather looks potentially rainy so I'll plan to be indoors. If you want to join me, hit reply to RSVP and I'll let you know the location (Northfield). Also: it's not too late to harvest cattails, but will be soon and I found a spot downtown where there's some really high quality Daylily leaves, which I'll share with anyone who is interested.
