Matcha & Cacao: Where Ancient Plants Meet Modern Hearts
Join Dina Valentini and Denise Panner for a refreshing summer gathering inspired by two remarkable plant allies that have nourished humanity for generations.
Though cacao and matcha were cultivated on opposite sides of the world, each has long been prepared with care, intention, and reverence. Each invites us to slow down, become present, and savor a moment of connection.
This gathering is not a recreation of traditional ceremonies. Instead, it is a modern ritual of gratitude—one that respectfully honors the unique histories of these beloved plants while inviting us to experience their gifts together in a joyful and approachable way.
We'll begin by meeting each plant individually, learning a little of its story and the qualities it has offered people throughout history. From there, you'll create your own refreshing iced ceremonial cacao and iced matcha using a collection of complimentary homemade herbal and fruit syrups, allowing your drink to become a reflection of your own taste and intention.
No two cups will be exactly alike.
And perhaps that's the quiet lesson these two ancient plants offer us: there is room at the table for more than one kind of wisdom.
Whether you come for the flavors, the conversation, or the opportunity to slow down for an evening, we hope you'll leave feeling refreshed, inspired, and just a little more connected—to yourself, to one another, and to the remarkable plants that continue to bring people together across time and cultures.
Your experience includes:
🌿 Iced ceremonial cacao
🍵 Iced ceremonial matcha
🌸 A tasting bar of complimentary homemade herbal and fruit syrups
✨ Guided reflection and mindful conversation
💚 A welcoming community experience celebrating curiosity, connection, and the simple joy of sharing a cup
No experience with cacao or matcha is necessary—only a willingness to explore, sip, and enjoy the journey.

Community Supported — For those who would benefit from a little extra accessibility.
