I want to tell you a Story

More than 10 years ago, the opportunity arose to purchase the farm land next to us. It had been constantly farmed, and always with GMO products, and pesticides. We had asked the farmer renting the land to please not use the pesticides, but he felt it was the only way he could produce enough crops. I know that poison blew onto our land, made our dog Ranger ill, and we were always concerned about our well water.

We jumped on that opportunity to purchase the land. We informed the rental farmer that he would only be able to farm the land if he used non-GMO seeds and no pesticides, and he said very quickly that he would not be renting and farming under those conditions.

We were fine with that… and we looked forward to having that beautiful land heal itself, to allow the soil to regenerate.  We wanted to see what could happen when the land and it’s creatures were not being poisoned.

The following spring we were amazed.

One of the first signs of new life on the land was an old pear tree, one that we actually thought was dead, as we had never seen leaves on it, sprang into full blossoming beauty.

She was overjoyed at not being poisoned anymore!

That year we saw more butterflies than ever and even had a delightful plague of tiny frogs! And we now have the most amazing selection of birds that flock to our land!

Walking on that land, called the Magical Meadow, and leading small groups on quests and forest bathing experiences, the land welcomes people, and to this day holds an energy of joy.

I know that land, the trees and creatures on it are grateful. I think they do know that we are it’s caretakers now, and that all of those beings share their joy with our clients and students!

 

If you love nature, love to help people, family members, or just want to treat yourself, you might want to learn the practice of Forest Therapy,

and lead yourself and others on these healing and magical experiences.
