With great delight, we are inviting you to Apprenticing to the Earth, taking place from 25 May-1 June at Axladitsa-Avatakia http://www.axladitsa.org/, in South Pelion, Greece.

Our calling question is “How can we open ourselves to re-membrance with the Earth to cultivate our capacity to Source the wise actions needed at this time of significant transformation of humanity and planet?” We invite you to be part of a rich trans-local community of learners, with a wonderfully diverse circle of living wholeness hosts with visiting faculty, the wild land of Axladitsa, and our local community.

Permaculture and natural building will be our embodied practice in this inquiry along with contemplative practices of listening to land and connecting with both the visible and invisible aspects of nature. We will invite the Earth’s wisdom to inform our practices of permaculture, natural building and the conscious kitchen and engage the modalities of conversation, silence, listening to land, writing, artwork, local cuisine and other creative expressions – to inform, cultivate and inspire our natural capacities and access our deepest intelligences, in service of people and planet.
