Thursday 25th May 2pm - Saturday 27th May 2pm
River Dart, Devon - Meeting at Point Field Campsite, Sharpham (10 mins taxi from Totnes station, or 1-2 hour walk along the River!)
The Torah was revealed on a mountaintop in deep wilderness. This wilderness is still speaking, still revealing the Majesties of Mystery.
Are we listening?
Join us this Shavuot as we receive the Torah of the River Dart. Spending our days in deep connection & conversation with the ecologies of this watershed, by canoeing their sacred waters, mikveh-ing (ritually immersing) in them, camping at their sides & walking their banks.
We will meet this River and the creatures and beings who live in and amongst it, as kin. We will meet each other as kin, finding our ways back to our place in the wild web of things, honouring this ancient festival of revelation by listening deeply to the wilds within and around us, listening for what wants to be revealed in this time.
We will listen to the pull of the tides, the flow of the weathers and follow the story the river wants to tell. We do not yet know what this story might be* and where the river might take us but we do know its mysteries will be magnificent and we will all be changed by our meeting.
We can't wait to journey with you!
