Moving with a Mission
 
Movement doesn’t always mean breaking a sweat at the gym or going for a vigorous run. Sometimes, it’s slow, intentional, and educational. This was the spirit behind Halara’s community event with Herb Club LA last month. Founded by Herbalist Andrea Jimenez in 2022, Herb Club LA teaches the importance of caring for, cultivating, and advocating for native plants through community-building events. Together, we embraced their mission to re-establish reciprocity with the land and all its inhabitants. Outfitted in our bestselling Active Dresses, participants hiked through Hahamongna Watershed Park in Pasadena while celebrating spring and showing appreciation to local plants and peoples.
 
 
Embracing Connection to the Land
 
The day began with a moment of grounding, inviting everyone to land in their bodies and settle into the day while giving thanks for the recent rain and honoring the original caretakers of this land, the Tongva peoples. Hikers identified plants throughout the walk while learning of their traditional uses and ways to build their connection with the land. Marrubium, an invasive plant known for its powerful cold-fighting properties, and Black Walnut trees proved to be the standout plants of the day, flooding Instagram stories and camera rolls with their abundant leaves. Engaged participants traded observations, laughed, and asked thoughtful questions in the spirit of the day.

Firmly Planted in Community
 
Connections were strengthened through sharing photos and tea brewed from ethically gathered elderflowers and elderberries sourced from a regenerative farm in Oregon while recapping the day. One hiker remarked,

“There was a beautiful sense of presence throughout. As the walk ended, two owls flew overhead, a gift from the land that left everyone smiling.”
