Personal Lessons Offered
I have been asked so many times over the years, most of which have been in the last few months, if I offered personal lessons. The answer is "yes", but it's difficult to set a particular time frame for them as I have a part time job at the local newspaper, I'm a board member of our new local farmers' market, and I make crafts to sell at the farmers' market on Saturdays.
But, I think it's time to set the time to offer these lessons. So, I am putting it out there to all y'all to ask several questions:
1) What day(s) work for you? (for me: Tuesday evenings, all day Wednesdays and Sundays)
2) What in particular do you want to learn? (be specific)
3) How long do you want each lesson to last? (i.e. would an hour be good or "as long as it takes"?)
4) Do you want physical materials (emailed lessons/information) as well or would your own notes be enough?
4) Give me YOUR ideas...
My fee is $25/hour with a 1 hour minimum. The lessons would be done via Skype and could be done individually or in conference with more than one student.
Please let me know what y'all think. I really do want to do this, so please email me:
grannytackett@yahoo.com or hoodoohillrootworksupply@gmail.com or via Facebook.
Welcome to Hoodoo Hill (named for my Boxer buddy who was never too far from my side until his passing with his best girl, Gris-Gris, on November 2, 2020). My name is Granny Tackett and I’d like to introduce you to various aspects of rootwork and Granny Magic, a form of American Folk Magic; herbs, roots, potions, brews, rituals, spell works, wildcrafting, divination systems, and many other interesting tidbits of folk magic. I hope y’all enjoy your visit!

Workshops for 2015
Workshops for 2015
I've updated the schedule for the Workshops for 2015 on the Workshops page.
As I have taken a part time position at the local newspaper, I have altered the 5-Day Workshop down to 3 days. No material has been deleted or reduced, the hours of class have been extended to help make up for the extra presentation materials.
2015 Tentative Dates are:
2-Day Workshops ~ $500
Saturday & Sunday
May 9 & 10
July 11 & 12
August 8 & 9
October 10 & 11
3-Day Workshops ~ $750
Friday, Saturday & Sunday
June 5 - 7
September 4 - 6
For both Workshops there will be a group ritual on Saturday night, outside if weather permits.
Hours for all Workshops: 9 am - 5 pm (or later, if we're having fun and don't want to stop!)
Meals will either be cooked on-site or we go into town. Snacks & beverages will be available at all times.
I hope to hear from y'all soon so we can get together and have a great time learning & sharing!

Lavender Labyrinth
Lavender Labyrinth
This was posted on my Facebook page. Isn't it beautiful?! Wow! Can you imagine the awesome scent it would give?! When we finally get to our Kansas property I will most definitely be planting one of these in front of the church building, with the entrance facing the church doors.
Lavender (Lavandula officinalis):
Magickal Aspects:
Chastity, Clairvoyance, Devotion, Dreams, Faery magick, Handfasting, Happiness, Healing, Longevity, Love, Meditation, Mental clarity, Money, Peace, Protection, Purification, Sexuality, Sleep, Virtue, Wishes
Element:
Air
Doing the math to figure out how large a diameter I want and the number of seeds to plant or the number of plants to buy will be lots of fun! I'd like a Mimosa tree in the center. I think the pink blooms with the beautiful lavender flowers would be a gorgeous contrast. LOL Of course, as large as the Mimosa gets, that means the lavender labyrinth will be quite large as well! Maybe I should re-think the tree in the center!

New Chicken Coop
Plans, Plans, & More Plans!
Before it got too cold we had to build a new chicken coop. We decided to move them to the garden area, and give Liberace & Charli their place. Poor Charli had gone broody, refusing to lay eggs or come out of her house. Don't blame her, the "house" was a big round tub with a hole cut out for the door. Not warm at all. Liberace would come out in the morning with frost on his feathers! So I told hubby we had to put their "house" inside the larger coop that was where the big chickens were. Which meant building a new coop.
The large coop was more of a shed size anyway, so now Liberace & Charli have their "house" inside on the right and all the chicken & horse feed, and my garden tools are on the left. Perfect use of all that space! It took Charli barely a week before she was laying eggs again, and she runs around in the pen all day. No more brooding! woohoo!
The Banties are still happy in their place. But now we have an empty pen. I'm planning on getting a few more chickens in the Spring that will live in that space. Maybe another breed of Banty since the space is rather small.
So, here are the coops & the chicken pens as they are now:
In the Spring I'll start another garden but in a different location further down from the chickens, on the other side of the compost pile. That's if we don't sell the place in the mean time! Either way, lots to do once Spring rolls around!

And the chickens:
