What is Forest Gardening and who is it for?

This ancient form of gardening is familiar in the tropics but a relatively new thing in colder climates, but the principle works just as well! It can also work in any space, you do not need to be forest sized!

Each new moon, you are invited to gather around the fire beneath the canopy of stars and immerse yourself in a transcendent soundscape with Oyu and a special guest artist.

The journey begins with heart-opening cacao, guiding you gently into a breathwork experience that prepares you to dissolve into a liminal space—one where intentions take root and dreams are seeded for the new moon cycle.
