Grateful for our Peace Feast gathering.
Food shared, stories told, and honest conversations across different faiths about caring for the earth and finding unity in a changing world.

This Sunday we’re hosting a winter storytelling circle at Hazelnut.
We’ll sit around tables and share a few simple stories, or just listen.

There will be different prompts to help you reflect on this season, your life, and your faith.
No pressure to speak.

Sunday 18th, 3–5pm

Creating an ecosystem Why I’m More Interested in Ecosystems Than Movements

What if the work isn’t to build a movement, but to nurture an ecosystem?

This piece reflects on why the Hazelnut Network is more interested in relationships, conditions, and long-term growth than scale or speed.

This year at Hazelnut we’ve seen seeds become stories. We’ve grown vegetables, friendships, confidence, and community. We’ve welcomed new people, shared food around fires, cared for the land, and discovered hope together in small, beautiful ways. Happy New Year!

As the land slows and rests, we do too.
Through winter we gather around fire and candlelight to share Christmas, go deep, recharge and begin again.
All are welcome.

Over the last two weeks at Hazelnut we have celebrated the season together with an autumn festival and an All Saints gathering with pumpkin carving. 85 adults and 50 children joined in. A beautiful glimpse of community life growing through the seasons.
