The Druid's Deadly Darlings

a series on all things poisonous and proper

  The world of poisonous plants is fascinating, and they have a long standing relationship with human history. But which ones are they? What makes them so poisonous? And how have they been used to heal, rather than harm?

  The Druid's Deadly Darlings is a captivating series of panels, talks, and classes that delves deep into the shadowy side of horticulture and beyond. Presented by esteemed 19th-century horticulturist, Madame Datura, this immersive experience not only unravels the folklore and history behind some of the world’s most poisonous plants, but also explores the deadly allure of other toxic substances—such as arsenic poisoning—and the eerie depths of Victorian-era history.

  From ancient indigenous legends to tales of infamous femme fatales, we will wander through a dark garden where beauty, danger, and deception entwine. With Madame Datura as your guide, The Druid's Deadly Darlings offers an unforgettable blend of old-world storytelling, botanical intrigue, and sinister historical secrets—an excursion into the enchanting realm of nature’s deadliest blooms and the darker corners of our past.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Jennifer

"I had the most incredible experience during my sound healing session with Renée Fleury. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. Her calming presence, deep knowledge, and intuitive approach made the session truly special.

The vibrations and frequencies from the instruments, combined with Renee's beautiful, soothing voice, created a profound sense of relaxation. Her voice carried so much warmth and healing energy—it felt like it was gently guiding me into a deep state of peace and clarity. I was able to release stress and tension I didn’t even realize I was holding.

I left feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply rejuvenated. If you’re looking for a truly transformative and healing experience, I highly recommend Renée Fleury! Her gift for sound healing is extraordinary, and I can’t wait for my next session!"

Allisyn

"I have been a recipient of sound healings for over 6 months and she has helped heal my ankle and my soul. Her sound healings are the best I've ever experienced, she really makes you feel the bowls. She's done everything from physically healing me to spiritually healing me. No matter what you're looking for, she's definitely the one you want to see."

Douglas

"A couple of years ago, I had the opportunity to experience Renee's sound healing in Hartford, CT. I found it both very profound and healing for me. I hope others will find her sound healing to be the same for them as for me."

Adin

“White Wolf/Renee has very strong energetic and clairvoyant awareness. Her love, strength, and passion clearly shines through in her work, from every time I've seen her work. She has generously guided me, through sound healing and psychic readings, to deeper clarity and healing around both my internal and external life situations. I recently attended a New Moon ceremony she facilitated, and I feel confident that everyone in the room was receiving guidance, magnetic stillness, and Spirit through the help of her channeling and wisdom she brought forth. She is a fantastic guide, healer, and friend."
