Founded in 1977 by Gwydion Pendderwen, this is our ecological branch, through which we do work for the planet in the form of tree planting festivals and information dissemination about forestry situations. We have planted ceder, pine, Douglas fir, and redwood on logged-over land in Northern California since 1977. We charge minimally for these events and function entirely on donations. At other times of the year we plant fruit and nut trees, practice organic gardening, do erosion control and occasionally lead tree plantings for other groups. Our tree plantings are combined with ritual healing ceremonies, organic cooking, music and entertainment, hot tubs and a yearly forum. Our purpose is to combine the ecological with the spiritual.
