Rooted. Rising Through Grief, June 28-29

When: 
Jun 28 2025 - 10:00am - Jun 29 2025 - 4:00pm
(18) Fig (Brown Turkey)

This weekend offers a rare opportunity to tend to the neglected territories of loss that our culture so often asks us to override, ignore, or deny:

  • The grief of dreams unrealized

  • The sorrow of ecological devastation

  • The ache of disconnection from community

  • The mourning of identities shed or stolen

  • The ancestral grief carried in our bloodlines

  • The pain of relationships altered or ended

  • The losses that come with aging and change

  • The fear and confusion of trying to make this life “work”

  • The epidemic of depression and anxiety

  • The list does not end, it is not supposed to, grief is part of the human experience 

Through carefully guided ritual, time on the land, creative expression, shared meals, and the ancient medicine of being present together, we will practice the art of grief tending as an act of community resilience and cultural transformation.

Share stories of your experience with TLC Farm

Four happy people turning sand and clay and straw into cob!During our long 20th anniversary (2024, 2025 and into 2026), we're harvesting memories, learnings, and feedback about the many kinds of experiences people have had through TLC Farm -- and how they've influenced peoples' lives far beyond. We plan to make these available as a suite of resources in a world where learning to share life and land is evermore core.

So: how can we do this together?

Firstly, please fill out this form. There's both a short series of questions, and a longer one for those that find more detailed prompts helpful. Anything you're able to share is great -- and feel free to fill out the form on multiple occasions if that works best for you.

Secondly, there's a place to share photos and videos -- from back in the day is great; and/or, please record yourself telling stories, take photos of people, projects, and places that have been influened by the Farm, or the like. We'd love that!

Finally, if you're available to help reach out to people, interview folks, and/or curate the results into compelling compilations, please email 20th@tryonfarm.org . We'd really love your participation, in all the ways!

Feedback and participation welcome! Please send bug reports to web@tryonfarm.org
