Join us at the Somatic Wisdom Institute as we bring our voices together in the singing of heart songs! We will gather to share and celebrate songs of devotion from all around the world. These songs of love and healing are intended to connect us to our own hearts, to each other, to Mother Earth and to the Great Mystery. You are invited to bring any songs you feel inspired to share, we open sharing to the whole community the last 3o or 40 minutes of the gathering. Dancing and improvisation is encouraged!

Tending the Vital Hive

Every Friday | 10:00AM–2:00PM | The Vital Hive | Lowell, MI | No Registration Necessary

 All Summer at The Vital Hive. Below is our spring schedule. More dates to follow

This season, we will gather each Friday to place our hands in the soil, shape pathways and gardens, and build beauty that feeds both people and the bees of the land! Tending the Vital Hive is our weekly community workday devoted to regenerative farming practices, edible landscaping, and living in reciprocity with the earth.

It is our dream to spend our days here on earth creating a place here on earth where the plants, animals and humans can find more and more reciprocity. Please join us!

Some days we plant.
Some days we build.
ome days we clear, compost, and make space for what wants to grow next.

All are welcome. No need to sign up, just show up

A simple shared meal will be provided at 2:00pm to close our time together.
