Dawnland Gathering


Arthur will be teaching several classes from plant identification to archery at the Dawnland Gathering located in Turner, ME.

Wake up in your tent along the beautiful Androscoggin River, participate in morning gratitude circle, and eat a delicious organic breakfast prepared by Nezinscot Farm. 

Then, as your kid's run off to KID'S CAMP, choose from a variety of classes including including archery, traditional Passamaquoddy basketry, acorn processing, women's circle, natural birthing class, felting, friction fire, edible and medicinal plant walks, family yoga, ash basketry, climate change and its impact on the local indigenous seasonal harvest wheel, and many more... 

After a day of classes, relax by the fire with an organic dinner inspired by local and seasonal ingredients. 

End the night with a facilitated gathering wide drum circle, moonlit talks, songs around the central fire pit, and more. 

Know that all of the proceeds from the gathering will go to purchasing and protecting central Maine's undeveloped forestland. Our goal for this gathering is to purchase & protect 150 acres out of the thousands our nonprofit is hoping to conserve for future generations.

So while you are learning ancestral skills, you are also protecting precious forestland and clean water sources for future generations of wildlife and trying-to-be-wild humans of Wilder Waters Community.
