Wisdom in the Wild

Join us for a three-day immersive experience in one of the most breathtaking regions of the Southern Colorado Rocky Mountains. Nestled beneath the towering 13,000’ volcanic Spanish Peaks and surrounded by the dramatic stone formations known as ‘Dikes,’ this journey offers a rich and soulful invitation to reconnect—with nature, with plants, with community, and with yourself.

Over the course of this experience, you will:

  • Reawaken and deepen your relationship with the Earth through grounding mindfulness practices and present-moment awareness.

  • Meet a vibrant array of therapeutic and edible plants across diverse and beautiful ecosystems.

  • Build a strong foundation in plant identification using engaging, accessible tools and playful observation.

  • Practice the art of ethical wild harvesting and create nourishing herbal remedies in the field.

We’ll wander through mountain meadows, riparian corridors, subalpine forests, and ancient aspen groves—pausing often to connect with the land and its living beings. Each day includes the creation of a botanical remedy to take home, along with time for quiet reflection and joyful exploration. A balance of shared experiences and solo time will allow space for deep connection, renewal, and a playful return to wonder.
