Join us every Thursday in May at Ale Apothecary for a fun card game and pint night supporting CASA of Central Oregon!
Each week, they’ll be a new card game featured, so you can meet new people, learn something new, and raise funds for children in foster care. Cards are provided at each table with instructions to play each week’s game.
– Week 1 (May 1st) features Rummy, a classic card game where – you’ll try to form sets or runs and get rid of all your cards first!
– Week 2 (May 8th) features Kings in The Corner, a competitive and strategic card game where you’ll work to build piles in descending order and empty your hand first.
– Week 3 (May 15th) features Spoons, a fast-paced, hilarious game where the goal is to grab a spoon when you have four of a kind!
– Week 4 (May 22nd) features Crazy Eights, a card game where you race to get rid of all your cards by matching ranks or suits. The best part? The eights change the suit, keeping the game exciting!
– Week 5 (May 29th) features Golf, a fun, quick card game where the goal is to have the lowest score, just like in real golf! Match cards to reduce your points and race to the finish.
Every pint sold helps support CASA volunteers who advocate for children in foster care locally. We hope to see you there!

Explore the art of kiln-formed glass in this inspiring two-day workshop with artist Crystal Schenk. Participants will learn to capture the intricate details of natural objects—like leaves and feathers—by creating one-of-a-kind glass impressions that reflect the beauty of the natural world.
Workshop Highlights:
Day 1: Introduction & Collection
Crystal will begin with an introduction to glass-making techniques, featuring live demonstrations and examples to inspire the works. Afterward, participants will take a reflective walk around the scenic Pine Meadow Ranch grounds to gather natural items to incorporate into their designs. Attendees will press these found objects into clay to create unique molds, forming the foundation for their glass artwork.
Day 2: Glass Casting & Design
Learn methods for layering glass, using frit for colorful details, and incorporating fossil vitra to add texture and depth. By the end of the day, participants will finalize their glass design, which will be kiln-fired overnight. Participants can choose to pick up their finished piece or have it shipped if they’re from out of town.
Attendees will leave with a beautiful glass artwork, perfect for display as a wall hanging or decorative plate.

about
Adventure: Join us as we go right to the source! For this incredible experience, Wanderlust Tours will be partnering with Luckey’s Woodsman, experts in backcountry cooking techniques, to teach guests about foraging techniques, identification of flora and fauna, and how simple ingredients that can be found all around us in mother nature can be used to make and accentuate stunningly delicious dishes!
Naturalist Guided Experience: We will begin our adventure in the forests of the Cascades. On our journey we will learn about the incredible ecosystems that exist just beyond our front door, gaining a depth of knowledge about flora, fauna, and flavor! As we meander through the forest, our naturalist guides will remind you to keep your eyes peeled for wild mushrooms, berries, and other delectable items that grow wild in our amazing forests. After some hopefully fortuitous foraging, we will gather around the dining table for a four course meal prepared by Luckey’s Woodsman, using locally sourced ingredients and accompanied by local beer and wine. Alongside the absolutely incredible meal under a canopy of ponderosa and fir, Jackson of Luckey’s Woodsman will share his techniques, and more importantly his devout passion for making meals that pay homage to Central Oregon.

Find yourself in nature like you never have before.
Feel your stress melt away as you get connected to your roots.
Witness the magical transformation your mind, body, and spirit will move through as the mind takes a well-earned break, the body gets some well-deserved attention and rejuvenation, and spirit gets to connect with the beautiful bigger picture and serves up a dose of wonder, fascination, gratitude, and connection.
A forest bathing session starts off with a guided meditation deepening into each of the senses, and then you’ll be led through a series of invitations that offer the opportunity for deeper relaxation and connection with ourselves and the earth.
We will come together for optional sharing and close the experience with wildcrafted tea.
Forest bathing is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, which translates to “forest bath” and just means to take in the atmosphere of the forest through our senses (leave your swimsuit at home…no literal bathing required!). It is a practice of spending time in forested areas for the purpose of enhancing health, wellness, and happiness and remembering our connection to nature and each other.
Decades of studies have discovered a wide range of health benefits associated with this practice, including stress relief, better sleep, lowered blood pressure and inflammation, and improved immunity.
