Yellow Springs Red Tent : Laurie Dreamspinner, Marybeth Wolf, Amy Chavez, Nicole Rosaria-Manieri 

In 2007 at the Women's Herbal Conference, ALisa Starkweather invited women to create Red Tents in their communities, Marybeth landed on her home soils and called, “Red Tent women where are you?!”.  Within that same day, she ran into Laurie, Amy, and Nicole. The four of them met that next new moon, and have been meeting each new moon since. With their commitment to hold the container each month, the YS Red Tent community has grown and nurtured women through all life transitions: maidenings, births, cronings, deaths, rebirths.  The practice of coming together in rhythm with the moon, of planting seeds of intention, of being witnessed with loving acceptance, and acknowledging life transitions has seeped beyond one evening a month. This sacred space and practice cultivated together consistently overtime is an entraining force for creating new culture.
