The Spaces
The Offerings
The Experience
Earth & Nekter is a play on words.
We craft our intentional beverages, called Elixirs made of the Earth, our Plant Kin. Earthen, meaning of the Earth.
Nekter, a play on nectar, sourcing from its original etymology ‘nek-‘ meaning ‘death’ and ‘ter’ meaning to overcome, known as the drink or nourishment of the gods in Greek – in other words, the Elixir of Life.
We, humans, are of the Earth. Earthen to our core. Our elixirs are (intended to) awaken this remembrance and bring us closer to our plant kin, enhance our life force energy, and elevate our consciousness, so that we may savor and celebrate the “nekter” of life!
With our bodies fortified and enriched by the nectar of our elixirs, the natural awakening of the heart occurs. Earth & Nekter supports this blossoming as a hub and wellspring for community gatherings, expansive workshops, offerings, and conscious events to bloom.
You are made of Earth. Elixirs, our nectar are made of Earth. Together we are Earth & Nekter.
