Immerse yourself for a week in deep nature connection.

From July 17 till July 24 2015, we will be exploring the core practices that connect us deeply to our sense of place and the natural landscape. Learning to read stories in the ground and hear music from the singing of birds. You will learn how to change an ordinary walk in the woods into one filled with adventure and wonder. We will learn about nature observation and wildlife tracking, bushcraft and wild edible plants and how these can lead us to a deeper sense of connection to the land and a feeling of being at home in the wilderness.

Through developing greater observation skills of patterns and cycles found in the natural world we will also look at how we can incorporate these principles into other aspects of our lives from how we design our garden, to how we can organize a team.
