Welcome to Rising Rooted Village! We have now begun our third term as a Village 🥰❤🙏🔥

These tickets are for families who are interested in learning more about Rising Rooted Village and becoming a member. We now run a structured offering with our village members so you will be able to spend the whole day villaging with us and getting involved. (If you're ready to go ahead and join us for all 6 sessions, then email us for a membership for this season and benefit from other exclusive member perks and discounts! hello@risingrootedvillage.co.uk) 

Our Winter 2024 dates are Tuesday 12th November - Tuesday 17th December 2024. We will be running  our full offering for adults and children of all ages for 6 weeks this winter.

Our days together are now full days in our stunning woodland garden where we are now providing the heart-centred, value-led activities for the whole family that aim to connect us deeper to ourselves, each other and to nature.  We'll have some nourishing whole-family activities on offer each session (morning and afternoon), and our daily rhythm is as follows:  

We will open the village with an intentional welcome circle, drawing in the power of Mother Earth and sending out our love and gratitude as lead by our gorgeous “Grandmother Nature” and Chief Elder, Kim.

The morning session (roughly 10:30-11:30am) contains our adult-only workshop held in the yurt: a session which is completely unique to Rising Rooted Village in that you will be deeply nourished and restored (whether through meditation, breathwork, circling, etc) while knowing that your children are close by in the garden with other value-aligned parents! (as well as trained facilitators). While the Yurt Yums takes place, the rest of the village and all the children will be enjoying our seasonally-aligned, nature-inspired, fun activity that is suitable for 6 month olds and 60 year olds!

We all come back together at around 12pm  for a shared lunch. We now enjoy a healthy and wholesome “Pot Luck" feast together at lunch, some of which we cook or heat on the open fire, which is a delicious and beautiful ritual we have together. Please feel able to join in and bring a dish, or bring your own packed lunch for this trial day if that feels more doable.

Our afternoon sessions are less structured with loads of time for free play and high-quality being together. This is when our parents have engaged in deep conversations and meaningful topics while we've seen our children really lean in to the opportunity to create their own magic! We've had spontaneous yurt dance parties, mud kitchens and tinkering and full-body painting!! 😄

We'll close at the end of each day together with another intentional circle in which to share learnings or creations from the day and our deep love and gratitude for each other 🙏❤

These Tuesday sessions are woven together as part of a larger 'curriculum' that flows in line with nature and her seasons as well as the direction that we are called to guide the Village in. Please use this page to book and join in for one session to come and see if we are for you. After your trial day, we invite you to join us for the rest of the term to get the full experience of Village for your family.  Each season ends with a Village Council for members to gather and discuss feedback and ideas for the village as well as a Family Celebration day! All with the focus on building our strength as a community through which each adult and child can feel a deep sense of joy and belonging to something great.

Please book on to one of these sessions if you are new to the Village and would like to try a slice of village life before becoming a member!  We are opening the Village on a block-booking only basis to honour the depth of connections that we are growing. After your taster day, we invite you to sign up for the rest of the term to continue learning and growing with us. We are really looking forward to getting to know you and your family ☀❤
