Madre Sanctuary and Healing Gardens

06/18/2025

Dear Relatives,

The garden is back and bountiful. We are gathering in community every third Saturday of the month and we now have CSA veggie boxes available for our friends, relatives, neighbors, friends and supporters.

Come visit us, and eat farm fresh veggies from our garden.

Let’s gather in community and support our local economy.

Beloved Community,

As we move forth in the wheel of the year, we celebrate the arrival of the Spring Equinox.

Around here, we are reminded of the long and windy journey that brought us to this point.

Back on Marxh 21, 2016, we received the lease for our beloved Terra Madre. That Spring we began our traditional Seasonal Gatherings.

Over the years, these events have evolved into sacred rituals that weave together community, connection, and a deep reverence for the natural world.

For us, holding ceremony and ritual during these threshold times is a powerful way to realign with the rhythms of nature. As we synchronize our lives with the cycles of the earth, we begin to remember our place within the web of life. We're reminded that our separation from nature is an illusion, born of lies (colonization), arrogance and forgetfulness.

Our hope is to continue cultivating this sacred space, creating a sanctuary that nourishes our connection to the land, to each other, and to the wisdom of the natural world.

We envision a community that comes together to celebrate, to learn, and to grow.

Join us for Seed Gathering as we mark the return of spring and renew our commitment to living in harmony with the Self, the earth and one another.

Beloveds,

We are excited to invite you to join us for an intimate Farm-to-Table Dinner celebrating the spirit of Gratitude.

There is no other word that can best describe how we feel. It was very hard for us to make the move and fully understand that there is always a bigger reason for it all. The transition we have had to make has increased our understanding and trust in the great mystery.

We have been here for three months and day by day, the confirmations of why this move and change had to happen are very clear and strong.

There is so much that we want to share with you all and we couldn’t wait for next year.

We want to walk the new land with you and for you to feel the silence, tranquility and transformative power this place has to offer.

Because we are so early in our homesteading process, this event is going to be small and intimate.

Can’t wait to see you!

Beloved Community,

It has been a long time since we have posted here on Facebook. 😅

There has been so much happening since we last did and we really wanted to come back and reestablish ties with those of you that limit your social media to this medium. 🥰

Long story short, we had to leave the land that had housed Terra Madre Gardens. It was sold and sadly, we were not able to meet the price. Our heart has broken and began to recover knowing that everything happens for a reason. ✨

We are very grateful for all we lived at TTerra Madre Gardensand forever will be I love with that land and all that happened there. 🙏🏾

A beautiful piece of land made itself available and everything flowed in the right direction and it has now been 3 months of us being on a new land - homesteading, growing the garden and establishing relationships with our surroundings. 💗

Attached, is our Autumn Equinox Newsletter. 🪶
