Tonight, a mile from the sea, I hear the rumbling of big waves against the sand bar. The wild world scurries and flutters in preparation of the ice storms and stillness soon to come. The air drapes us in the thick energy only Autumn can offer.
Our cozy studio space in Nehalem is holding a crystal grid of calm and nourishment for the soul this Autumn and into Winter. We invite you to take part in some of the sweet classes and events coming up this season! Read on…
SUN, OCT 26 | 11am(online only) | $33
ANCESTRAL JOURNEY FOR SAMHAIN with APRIL CLARK
Light your candles and lay back on pillows and blankets, at home/ from anywhere online. Listen and breathe as April drums a relaxing rhythm and guides you in a visualization journey practice, down into the realm of the ancestors. You are invited to create a beautiful connection with your loving ancestral guides.
April learned this offering from grandmothers in Ireland who have kept it alive. It is an ancient shamanic practice that is especially potent during the Autumn season, known as Samhain in Celtic/Irish tradition, as this is believed to be the time when the veil between the worlds is thin.
SUN, OCT 26 | 5pm | $25

TIME: 10:00 – 12:00 FRIDAY the 24th
PARK: at the end of Bayside Gardens Rd.
MEET: walk back to Neptune Way.
Sometimes this spot can be mucky so plant to bring a pair of rubber boots. Tools and gloves are provided.

The project fulfills a vision first imagined more than twenty years ago, when LNCT launched the Protect the Edge campaign to safeguard and connect vital habitat from Alder Creek to Nehalem Bay State Park. These edge lands nurture wildlife, buffer neighboring communities from winter storms, filter water entering the bay, and provide access to connect with nature.
On Tuesday, October 28th from 3pm – 5pm we will gather at Alder Creek Farm to celebrate. Light refreshments will be served, followed by a short program and optional walking tour to the property (roughly a half mile walk on damp natural and gravel surfaces, or van shuttle available). We recommend water resistant footwear. All are welcome!
