Heading Home



Yesterday, we spent the day giving back to the farm that we've spent the last week at. One crew, the river rats, cut a bunch of sycamore trees out of the river bank. Others worked on maintaining the labyrinth we walked through for future groups, on cutting away brier patches, and building a bridge. This work was important to ensure that other groups can come after us and benefit from this eye-opening experience.

Our group (without Maegan, who got picked up early :( ) just before leaving the farm. Jeannie Kirkhope was our visionary retreat leader (back row, second from right).

We'll be completing the last leg of our physical journey tomorrow, but a pilgrimage like this doesn't end upon returning home. We hope to share with you reflections from our experience over the course of the next few weeks.
