Join in for the 2nd annual Tending the Earth experience! We are calling in hands to heal the land, raise community, honor nature & enjoy collective creativity! This year we are expanding the experience to a 2-day village style retreat. The purpose of this event is to move in a unified way, to develop connection to the earth, to community, and to ourselves by way of collective participation with nature & with one another! Throughout the weekend we will be- - Doing a collective installation of a Kids Garden, Garden Pond, and other Community Garden Activities! - Community Wellness Practices (yoga, breathwork, meditation) - Community Music with Open Mics, Jams, Drum Circles & Featured Local Musicians - Children's Activities & Garden Craft workshops - Community Potluck meals -Time to recharge and relax in nature by the beautiful Little Miami River! Activities will begin Saturday at 9 am and go through Sunday evening. You can also plan to camp Friday evening. Event is $10-20 sliding scale, kids are free. This event will be a fun-raiser and all proceeds will help go towards the community garden and land projects for the coming season such as the purchasing of trees, seeds, and materials needed for the pond and kids garden. If you would like to serve on the volunteer team in exchange for entry, reach out to an event host or directly to OEC. Camping will be available both Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evening! Bring your family and come for a full weekend of nature immersed in community and nature. Camping is $10 per night.
