Harvest is just beginning! Nourishing body and spirit, AUTUMN foods provide possibilities to foster peace at personal, community, and global levels. Lean into all the wisdom that this season offers. What old ways of thinking about your relationship to food might you release or compost? What ways of being might you want to preserve for future days?

We will deepen our relationship to food and nature by:
· eating locally grown food designed especially for this retreat,
· writing, conversing, and walking prairie and woods foraging gifts of autumn,
· drawing on the wisdom of Saint Hildegard of Bingen and other sages,
· cooking together a scrumptious, healthy, autumn treats to take home,
· learning to eat locally within the season using recipes that emphasize autumn’s plant-based foods.

Let’s brainstorm how we might prepare for the upcoming winter months and create opportunities for personal and planetary health.
