Craft & ecology

A creative community
and earth school

Green Girl Crafts is a creative community and earth school for the curious, founded by environmentalist and author Leah Thomas. Rooted in the belief that making things by hand can bring us closer to the earth and to one another, it’s a place to gather, learn, experiment and create.

Primarily based in Los Angeles, CA with pop-ups and collaborations elsewhere, Green Girl Crafts has welcomed thousands of guests into workshops, field trips and gatherings that blend ecological education with hands on making. Exploring natural dyes, florals, fermentation, printmaking, textiles and objects made slowly by hand.

Alongside our community programming, Green Girl Crafts creates custom workshops, activations and experiences for brands, cultural institutions, schools and organizations.

Whether you’re joining us for a workshop or inviting Green Girl Crafts into your own community, each experience is an invitation to follow your curiosity, learn from the natural world, make something beautiful and spend a little more time in wonder.

Beading and Ecofeminism Circle

July 7, 2026 · Kismet Cazimi Co. · Circles

This Ecofeminism & Beading Circle brought together an evening of creativity, conversation, and community.

Guests gathered in a welcoming circle to read passages on ecofeminism, reflect together, and engage in discussion in a space rooted in openness, curiosity, and care. Together, we created an environment where everyone felt invited to share, listen, and connect.

Following the discussion, attendees created handmade necklaces, bracelets, or bag charms while sipping warm tea and enjoying meaningful conversation. Surrounded by the beautiful atmosphere of Kismet Cazimi Co., the evening offered a chance to slow down, create with intention, and build community through craft.

The gathering included:

• Beading materials for necklaces, bracelets, and bag charms

• Shared ecofeminist readings and guided discussion

• Warm tea and cozy conversation

• Space for creativity, reflection, and connection

Whether you were new to ecofeminism or had been exploring these ideas for years, the gathering welcomed all experience levels and offered an opportunity to create alongside others.
