May Invitation
This season, when you drive up the dusty road and arrive at the Wilbur gate - of course, dutifully closing it behind you so the cows cannot enter - your senses will be immediately awoken. What will you feel, hear, see and smell? A sense of ease, the sound of a tumbling stream, grasses and trees dancing in a warm breeze, the pungent trace of sulphur in the air? Or is it a deeper arrival, steeped in meaning from countless visits, many stories made and memories kept? Do you still recollect your first visits here?

We’d like to believe that this valley remembers. Waters, carrying the memory of geologic time deep beneath the earth, holding us all equally through the years; hills holding stories of exploitation and also of reverent care, still smiling proudly through their scars: a valley that has hosted so very many across the ages.

We invite you to be a guest not of us, but with us, hosted by this generous place that takes its own time and slows all of us down in the process. This corner of calm in a wearying world asks only for stillness and simplicity, for presence over presentation. We’d like to imagine that it remembers us in the same manner as we remember it - and if we listen carefully, we can hear it welcome us back when we return. As co-hosts, we invite you to re-join us for a brief measure of time, to have it feel timeless.
Stewardship Transitions 
As some of you know, last March we wished our beloved Brew a “Bon Voyage” as she departed for Maine and new adventures! Since then, Hannah and Ericka have gracefully stepped up and taken on the Stewardship Program, with a joyful boost from Megan. Hannah will be on the grounds caring for the land and leading our amazing work-traders on fun projects like, trail work, weed control, fire mitigation and building beaver dam analogs. Ericka is behind the scenes answering emails and organizing the work trade groups for their time here. Together they are a dynamic duo and look forward to keeping this program alive and thriving! And as a bonus, Megan plans to return in the fall when the Stewardship activities begin to ramp up once again!

If you are curious about helping out be sure to join our Stewardship email list to stay up to date on all upcoming opportunities for this Spring/Summer! 
We still have space available for work trade days on May 28th & June 11th.
