Spend some time celebrating the traditional beginning of spring in the Celtic cycle of the year. This retreat will include some time spent learning and reflecting together on the themes of spring and new beginnings, along with ample opportunities for quiet reflection and exploring the grounds of the Forest as she begins to awaken from her winter slumber. We will enjoy a Celtic feast on Saturday evening, as well as a gathering around the fireplace or campfire, depending on the weather. Join us as we welcome spring and the return of the light!
