Get Involved
Come lend a hand in the garden, at a workday, or at a gathering — neighbors nourishing neighbors.
Forest Sanctuary runs on shared labor and freely given time. There is no membership, no fee, and no requirement — only an open invitation to show up, learn something, and leave the place a little better than you found it.
A few ways to join in, depending on what suits you.
Workdays in the garden
Get your hands in the soil
Join a Saturday workday — planting, weeding, hauling, building beds. No experience needed; we teach as we go. Bring water and gloves; we bring the seeds and the tools. Come once or come every week — either is welcome.

Come to a gathering
Neighbors, food, and quiet
Through the season we gather for shared meals, harvests, and the turning of the year — a potluck, a planting day, a solstice. The door is open; you belong the moment you walk in.

Music & quiet
Sing, listen, practice
Come sing at a community sing-in, take voice lessons, or book the sanctuary to practice between seven and seven, April through October. The room is good to make music in, and all are welcome.

Domestic arts
Cooking, craft, and making
Bread baking, preserving the harvest, quilting, mending — the quiet skills of keeping a home. Bring what you know and learn what you don't, in good company.
