We offer a seasonal program of land-based workshops, gatherings, and other events from April to October. Our aim is to inspire a fresh reconnection with, and deep appreciation of, the natural world, through sharing place-based knowledge, practical skills and crafts, therapeutic experiences, and creative practices. All of our events are offered on donation. Come and nurture your relationship with the plants, the animals, the land, and each other.

Healing with Equines

Join Wild Peace Sanctuary founder, Lara Lwin Treadaway, out in the field with the Wild Peace herd, and experience the sense of joy and peace that comes when spending time with these animals and co-regulating with their nervous systems.

These people have learned not from books, but in the fields, in the wood, on the river bank. Their teachers have been the birds themselves,

when they sang to them, the sun when it left a glow of crimson

behind it at setting, the very trees, and wild herbs.
