Program Highlights

• Vinyasa Flow Yoga with Rebecca: This yoga class focuses on alignment of the body, fluidity of movement, and moving with the breath. The class will begin with a series of sun salutations, followed by a sequence of poses. No yoga experience required; if you can breathe, you can do yoga!

• Forest Exploration with Carly: Wander through our hiking trails and around the retreat center campus with Carly Sugar to check out what’s growing, learn how to identify plants and fungi, and understand how you might use it for food or herbal medicine. Explore other uses of plants, like pigments and fibers, to make your own land-based art. 

• Spring Farming with Janna: Sink your hands into the dirt and take a plant’s eye view of early summer- unrestrained growth and abundance burst forward everywhere on the farm under the long days. Harvest produce and savor it fresh out of the fields; learn about our regenerative approach to soil and plant health; and sync up with the rhythm of the growing season.
