HEALING AND GROWING FROM THE LAND
- Our land is a natural and spiritual refuge -
We draw heavily on land-based methods and teachings; which is why we are located on 20 acres of mixed forest, with a pond and seasonal stream, and tons of birds and wildlife. We have traditional Indigenous medicinal and forest gardens, as well as mediation/prayer sites, a healing sweatlodge, outdoor kitchen and dining areas, campfire pits, and a cozy porch for morning/evening coffee/tea. There is plenty of space for camping, or for more personal attention you can stay in our guest room which comes with its own private deck.
On the property there is a traditional lavvu and healing circle, as well as a plan to add a traditional tipi and then a guest yurt.
You will find our land to be restful, meditative, and inspirational.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME

OUR SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION
I am indigenous Aarjel Saemieh (South Saami) and Anishinaabe (Ojibway). I am a recognized traditional knowledge keeper, firekeeper, medicine keeper, and more; so I have a very good understanding of traditional culture and faith. Be warned however, that what and how much I share will be dependent on a variety of factors, and I reserves the right to withhold or share cultural teachings at my discretion.
As well, while we reject pop-culture Christianity we do also follow a very grassroots, counterculture, and creative expression of "The Way" of Jesus. I was raised with a knowledge and experience of both faiths; while this may be unusual for some indigenous people it is not unusual for many Saami.
If you have any questions or concerns about any of this please CONTACT US.
It is VERY IMPORTANT to understand that we do NOT proselytize - your faith and beliefs will be supported, respected, accepted, and built on to the best of our abilities.
WHY SHOULD YOU VISIT US?

Our approach is very holistic. Along with practical skills you will learn the why's and how-to's of the natural world, as well as basic eco-psychology and eco-spirituality.
As well, you will be provided with a safe and authentic space for life altering communication and connection to the natural world, your own spirit/being, and the Creator. And those in need may experience traditional forest healing opportunities.
Let's start this new journey together.
