Shelf Life Books

El Mercadito, brought to us by ArtesRVA, uplifts Latino creatives in the Richmond area. This pop-up market will feature tables throughout the store's upstairs where makers will showcase their work from 4 to 7 pm and you can support them with direct purchases.
Then, at 7 pm, join Claudia Bernardi and local mural artist Hamilton Glass as they discuss Claudia's debut book Art Against Brutality. Art Against Brutality brings a much-needed contribution to the field of community arts. It offers healing for survivors of terror in Latin America (El Salvador, Guatemala, Colombia, Argentina, México) and with Indigenous people of California in the United States. It outlines truly collaborative approaches, based on ideas from the community participants, rather than shaped by the facilitating artist. Often the form of the art project is a mural, in which the participants decide on the theme and storyline.
 As local Virginia artists, Claudia and Hamilton will explore the meaning of collaborative arts and the impact murals have on the people in the community.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/150482/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets</a> &amp; More info

Poultry 101&nbsp;is a beginner-friendly class designed to give you the knowledge and confidence to start your own flock the right way.
We’ll cover why chickens are one of the most practical and rewarding livestock choices — from fresh eggs and compost to pest control and greater self-sufficiency — while also discussing the daily care and time commitment involved.
You’ll learn how to choose the right breeds for your goals and climate, set up a safe and predator-proof coop, provide proper nutrition at every life stage, and recognize signs of a healthy bird. We’ll also cover common health concerns, basic flock management, egg collection and food safety, and realistic expectations for costs and maintenance.
Whether you’re dreaming of fresh eggs or building a more sustainable homestead, this class provides a clear, practical foundation so you can start small and grow with confidence.&nbsp; &nbsp;

We are a better than organic homestead (because we do not use any toxins) using regenerative practices, that grow and wild crafts powerful daily needs and gifts, beauty products and holistic health supports. Everything from sunscreen, pain care that helps you recover quicker, skin care, bug spray, we hand milk our goats, infuse organic oils with what we grow, for truly luscious Goat Milk and Tallow soaps. I formulate medicinal and delicious teas, Fire Cider, use the salts from The Dead Sea, the Sea of Cortez and Celtic salt to create an amazing magnesium and nutrient spray and body butter using organic mango butter. Our reviews are astounding and so much of what we do has been by request and of course, is what my family uses. Items like our anti-itch and healing salve and hormone balancing salve, the skin serum and shampoo bars, a powerful dermatitis salve, using the wax from our beehives, as beekeepers and the tinnitus tea with several wins behind it, and wow! Did you see the review posted on our Facebook and the dramatic results in the varicose veins? We wild forage and find much of our medicine in nature and Creation as we show our journey at on facebook and our website at www.fillingamehomestead.com I am extremely passionate about what we do, Creation has saved my sons life when we were given no hope and no treatment.
