Roots RendezvousA gathering of people. A huge variety of workshops and skills to choose from. Bring family and friends to come have a great time with others who share a passion for the natural world. Leave knowing more about the beautiful world which we inhabit.
August 31-September 2nd 2024
This gathering is grounded in the idea that we as people can become more conscious, stronger, effective, and capable stewards of the land by learning new and old skills of interacting with the natural world. These three days have multiple workshop blocks, ongoing demonstrations, and night time celebration.
Three Days of Workshops
The Rendezvous features three days of workshops offered by a diverse group of experienced teachers. People of all skill levels are welcome to come and participate.
See the 2023 schedule below.
This is an all ages event of primarily adult classes. There are multiple class offerings that happen at the same time so you get to choose your own adventure.
Come learn, share in the good times with like minded folks, and camp under the stars!
Kids 12 and under come for free! We will have morning workshops for kids. There is a greater focus on adult classes, with separate youth classes in the morning as well as classes open to all ages. Please exercise your best judgement and responsibility for their behavior so as to be a positive experience and not a distraction to the instructor or other students, and be ready to supervise your littles. Instructors will at gathering times make it clear if kids are welcome to attend their workshop or not.
Bows and arrows. Bring ’em! We will have targets set up to use at designated times. Traditional bows only. Check in with us at the event about shooting.
Limited attendance! We will have open rolling registration until we reach maximum capacity. Register soon! There are no single or two day passes for 2023.
Camping and Food
Camping Folks are welcome to camp on the land and is limited to tents, tarps and hammocks. Please practice Leave No Trace Camping. You are camping at your own risk and responsibility. There is a field and limited forested spots that are well marked and have plenty of space for you to lay out your tent/tarp/bivy. The camping is five to ten minute walk on a mostly flat logging road so pack accordingly. There is access to portable toilets and clean drinkable water in camp. There are no showers, but there is a private space to bring hot water and wash down and a gorgeous river to dip into at your own risk. You are welcome to come the night before to camp, and camp the night after attending for ease of travel. (Please note that upon online registration you will receive an automatic reply that wrongly states that there is no camping, but rest assured there is.)
Food Meals are not included in the cost of the program. Students should bring their own food. The outdoor kitchen and fridge is limited to classes, instructors and volunteers. Folks will be slinging some delicious meals and/or treats during the weekend! Cash only. They will be available Saturday lunch and dinner, Sunday breakfast, lunch and dinner, Monday breakfast and lunch. approximately $15 a plating with generous portions of local and organic fixings.
No Dogs. We love dogs! Please don’t bring yours though as it adds a layer of complexity that we are going to avoid.
