About
Us

Our collective is formed by three shared desires:

1) spend time in natural settings, deepening our personal relationships to the wilds within and without

2) build a supportive, open community of people who believe in the sacredness of the natural world, the web of life, and the ecosystems that sustain us

3) cultivate connections across nature-based spiritual traditions in the greater DC-area

Core Ethos

All are welcome

We recognize the dignity

and "person-hood" of all beings. 

​

While members need not share any particular

religious beliefs or devotional practices,

we do seek to share a

deep reverence for the wild world

and our place in the web of all things.

​

We seek to hold events that allow members to

encounter the sacred in nature on their own terms,

to deepen their relationships with the

unnameable mysteries of the natural world,

and to enjoy the fellowship of a

warm, open, and active community.

Inclusion

We revere inclusion

The unique tapestry of our inner and outer identities and expressions

are among the most beautiful magic that make up this world we share.

​

However, discrimination against any individuals or groups is not welcome at our events.

In particular, white supremacy or white nationalism have no place in our group or our gatherings. Sexism and discrimination against queer, trans, or non-binary persons have no place in our group or at our gatherings.

 

We strive to respect and see all beings as worthy. We welcome

and encourage folks to help inform us on ways we might not be living into

this reverence and to help educate us on how to be more radically inclusive.
