SUMMARY:The Fleur Cottage Flower Cart pop-up
DESCRIPTION:Location: The courtyard\n\nThe Fleur Cottage Flower Cart offers a calming\, garden-inspired experience that\nblends seamlessly with the intentional\, reflective atmosphere of Philosophers\nHouse Tea & Coffee. Rooted in slow\, seasonal beauty\, the cart invites guests to\npause\, create\, and connect — an experience that pairs effortlessly with the tea\nhouse’s focus on mindfulness and community.\nEvery stem displayed on the cart is locally grown\, herbicide- and pesticide-free\,\nand harvested 24–48 hours before the event on our small Tennessee flower\nfarm. This ensures the freshest blooms possible while honoring sustainable\,\nearth-conscious floral practices.Arranged in elegant water-filled buckets\, each selection of focal flowers\, fillers\,\nand foliage reflects the season’s natural rhythm — from spring ranunculus and\nsnapdragons to summer zinnias and dahlias\, to autumn celosia and eucalyptus.\nGuests are invited to build their own bouquet\, guided gently through stem\nselection\, color harmony\, and simple design. \nThe flower cart becomes a living art piece within the tea room — soft ribbons\,\nnatural wraps\, and curated textures that complement the warm woods\, quiet\nconversations\, and deep-set coziness of the space.\nGuests can choose between premade market bouquets or a DIY build-your-own\nbouquet experience: \nMarket hand-tied bouquets — $30\nDIY 5 stems — $15\nDIY 12 stems — $30 \nCheckout is simple — guests scan a Fleur Cottage QR code on the cart and pay\ndirectly from their phone. \nThoughtful\, sustainable\, and rooted in beauty\, the Fleur Cottage Flower Cart\nbrings a moment of quiet joy and intentional creativity to the heart of \nThe Philosophers House — an uplifting blend of flowers\, tea\, and\ncommunity.

SUMMARY:Mandarin Language Class
DESCRIPTION:Description: Mandarin Chinese is the single largest first language in the world\, with over 941 million native speakers\, and has become an invaluable language for anyone to learn\, whether they’re interested in engaging with Chinese business\, learning more about Chinese politics\, wanting to study deeper into Chinese culture\, or just fascinated by language! This course will function as an absolute beginner course in Mandarin Chinese. Learning objectives will be to be able to read and pronounce pinyin\, to learn very basic grammatical structures\, very basic day-to-day vocabulary\, begin to recognize and reproduce some characters\, and be able to hold simple\, introductory conversations. No prior Mandarin knowledge is necessary. If there are more advanced learners who would be interested in more advanced material\, please contact the instructor. \nHow to register: Advanced registration is greatly preferred as class does have limited seating. See instructor contact for registration. \nCost:  Food and drink purchases encouraged OR 5.00 donation at tea counter to support our nonprofit. \nLocation: Parlor\, 2nd floor \nMaterials needed: A notetaking device (laptop\, tablet\, notebook\, etc.) . We will be using Integrated Chinese Level 1; Part 1\, 4th edition\, which is available in print and eBook formats from several sources.  You can also use a previous edition\, as those are readily available and less expensive. We will use Simplified characters in the class\, as that is used in Mainland China and elsewhere.  As that series has both textbooks and workbooks\, be sure to select the textbook.  If you have questions about the suitability of a version\, feel free to contact the instructor. \nInstructor Contact Information: Heather at (208)215-6738 or Steven Jenkins (steven.jenkins@gmail.com)

SUMMARY:Mandarin Language Class

This course will function as an absolute beginner course in Mandarin Chinese. Learning objectives will be to be able to read and pronounce pinyin\, to learn very basic grammatical structures\, very basic day-to-day vocabulary\, begin to recognize and reproduce some characters\, and be able to hold simple\, introductory conversations.

SUMMARY:Climate Cafe
DESCRIPTION:What is a climate cafe? Climate-minded friends & neighbors who come together to share what’s important and to build a stronger\, safer world for us all! Climate Cafe occurs on the 2nd Tuesday monthly. \nLocation: Classroom/meditation space\, 2nd floor \nCost: Free. Food and drink purchases encouraged. \nHow to register: Drop-in. Registration form available to fill out upon arrival. \nInstructor Contact Information: Chelsea Green\, chelseagreencmi@gmail.com\nwww.anubeginningtherapy.com \nToo often\, our grief & anxiety around climate change lacks the community awareness\, support\, and rituals that would help us build resiliency. Now more than ever\, we need places & spaces to share our ideas\, our concerns\, our fears\, and our dreams. Gathering for these conversations helps us tap into a bigger network of support\, like the trees & mycelium share resources in their underground networks. \nClimate Cafes are free 90-minute gatherings welcome to all because we know that when we engage in meaningful conversation and action in the context of a community\, we grow our capacity to serve something bigger than ourselves. The Climate Cafe’s goal is to get more people together\, in more places\, talking about climate change in a supportive and welcoming space. \nThis event takes place on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at The Philosopher’s House in Johnson City\, Tennessee and is facilitated by Registered Climate Therapist\, Chelsea Green\, MA\, LPC\, CPA-NA. \nBeing human has always involved persisting through danger and uncertainty. By embracing our love for nature\, for all plants and animals\, and for humanity\, even in the face of great loss and pain our grief can empower us to fight for a better future for all.
