Expanding eco-consciousness and cultivating community through ritualistic experience
We are committed to cultivating and growing awareness of our oneness and inter-dependence with ecosystems (energetically, spiritually, & biologically). We believe that a deep and personal connection with the land and an understanding of the issues we face & possible solutions are fundamental necessities for the wellbeing of all. We work to gather knowledgeable eco-educators and make their wisdom accessible to the larger community through engaging workshops that address these topics.
An important aspect of developing our relationship with the land is to be in truer relationship with one another. As we can see demonstrated in healthy ecosystems bursting with diversity and symbiosis, a thriving community means a well balanced, thriving environment. What we are facing is simply too big to be processed alone. We need each other. Part of our purpose in gathering at this scale (150-250 max) is to promote & facilitate community-building that is localized & intimate.
When we gather and focus our collective awareness on a shared intention in honor of the sacred, it creates powerful and meaningful opportunities for deep connection. Participating in ceremony allows us to relate with the greater forces of nature and be in reciprocal communication with the subtle energies of the land. We believe this aspect to be a crucial (and often missing) piece of ecological restoration initiatives.
