EARTH & ROOT DAY NATURE RETREAT | 16 OCT 26 | BROMHAM MILL

All nature lovers,

You're invited to this beautiful Earth & Root day nature retreat at Bromham Mill, Bedfordshire, UK, celebrating our earth and the network of roots and fungi holding the soil together.

Join me at the beautiful 17 century Bromham Mill and gift yourself a day of gentle learning and self-reflection as we dive deep into the earth and roots that nourish us. Together we'll shift our perspective of the ground beneath our feet, as well as explore deep time and how roots are nourished by falling leaves. We will consider what we want to let go of and tend to during the autumn and winter season as we oppose the increasingly challenging demands on us in this socio-economic and environmental climate.

Throughout the day, we'll learn how going deep in the earth and in time can help us slow down, gain perspective and feel more grounded.

Awaken your curiosity and creativity
In this restful setting, we'll take time to:
learn to identify one local tree
explore why trees shed their leaves during autumn
learn about the vibrant networks and worlds beneath our feet
get creative with making your own take-home earth paint
understand how we can tread more softly on the earth
enjoy quiet, reflective time with the trees and earth in the meadow
nourish ourselves with a drink on arrival and a delicious lunch courtesy of The Mill Coffee Shop (included in the price)
make a herbal bath soak as a take-home ritual kit
Leave feeling nourished and fulfilled
You will leave the day feeling nourished and fulfilled in your connection with the earth and roots as well as yourself. You'll have gained a deeper understanding of the earth beneath your feet, the importance of shedding leaves and nourishing roots as well as taking care of the soil on which we tread. And, you'll have reawakened your creativity and curiosity for nature, all while connecting with a wonderful group of like-minded individuals.

"I always leave Agnes' retreats having learned something as well as being nourished by food, company and nature. I get so much from these days of calm and it truly gives me something just for me."
-Carys

Reminiscing about the Wildflower, Pollinators and Abundance evening nature retreat at The Leys Nature Reserve I ran with friend and colleague Ruth Sneath a couple of weeks ago.

Together we drew with flowers in our own concertina sketchbooks, swept for insects (there were so many grasshoppers!), and let the wildflower meadow remind us that what we've achieved this year is more than enough.

It was beautiful to take a moment to be with the wildflower meadow, learn from its abundance and generosity, feel calm and relaxed as we drew with flowers, appreciated the beauty and wonder of insects and seeds. We left feeling grounded, whole and filled with gratitude for this earth.

My next nature retreat is an autumn Earth & Root gathering to be held at on 16 October 2026. We'll be making mud paint, journalling outside amongst the Autumn leaves, considering what it means to let go and release and making our own take-home bath soak ritual kits.

Tomorrow (21 July) is the last day to find a unique work of art celebrating our beautiful, messy planet as part of the New Moon 25% Off Release Sale.

These three art prints have been my bestsellers for the last few years, and there are just a few left of each.
 
All these prints are from either:

🐦‍⬛ the Starling Murmuration Collection, celebrating their mystery, unity and togetherness (pertinent in these divided times)

💦 the Rivers Run Through Us Collection, celebrating the lifeblood of our land, the rivers of our bodies (nerves, arteries, veins, water) and the way rivers are at the forefront of the Rights of Nature Movement.

🌙 Comment "art" for the link to the Sale.

It is such an honour to know my art is lovingly placed on the walls of your homes, taking on a new life with you and your loved ones.

May you find artwork to fill your walls with wonder and joy.

(& thank you to my 8-year-old daughter for filming me. It was only afterwards we realised the camera was on 2x zoom 🤣)

And it doesn't all have to lie on your shoulders to "fix" and "save" the planet. We are dealing with forces much bigger than 1 human.

If my relationship with nature has taught me anything it's that we are all connected for better or worse. And we are not alone in seeking change.

What was telling was the near radio silence on the group after I posted this. And I understand - climate change is such a big thing to sit with... And yet here we are in the messy place all together. Doing what we can, imprefectly.

Let us imagine and then create more loving worlds starting with ourselves, the land, our loved ones and our local communities. Let us see where it takes us, what will evolve and sprout from healing creation upon the destruction.

This is what we explore in the Joy Adventure in my year-long programme Rewild Your Soul and it is beautiful.

🌼 Let me know in the comments which of these thoughts resonated the most.
