June was so cold and so rainy, I was scared summer may never arrive! But it did, and the heavy rains have mostly benefitted the garden. Now with some warmth I am hoping the harvest will be good this year. Enjoy this garden blog post, aka a glog! www.beyondbuckthorns.com/content/glog...

A man paddles a wooden canoe through a lush, green forest waterway. Bold white text reads: “Indigenous Peoples sidelined in global climate fight.”
Indigenous Peoples are among the most effective environmental stewards.
Yet, they receive less than 1% of international climate funding.
A new UN report calls for reforms that will benefit these communities: news.un.org/en/story/202...

23.04.2025 04:48 — 👍 2 🔁 1 💬 0 📌 0❓Will you host this again?
🌱 Probably not. This retreat is a part of a program that runs this year and includes this retreat, its sister retreat on Gran Canaria and a Convergence in 2026. Once the project is over, we won't have any funding for this again. So, most likely, it's now or never.
❓Can I manage if I have lots of allergies?
🌱Yes. Johanna, our host at Haltian pappila is very good in taking peoples allergies and special dietary needs into consideration, so you don't need to worry about that at all.
❓Can I manage ifI have special needs?
🌱Generally yes. If you have physical limitations like a wheelchair, you might want to contact us first though. The house is fully accessible, but some of the teaching spaces might need adjustment.
❓Can I manage if I am neurodivergent?
🌱Yes. We will make sure to make the retreat as inclusive as possible, with different kinds of activities for different kinds of learners, and also space and time to regenerate in between activities.
❓ Can I manage if my English is not good?
🌱 Yes. We chose English as the main language, as the project is international and several teachers are non Finnish speakers. However if your English is not strong, you can still come. We offer support in Finnish (DE and ES too) and will leave no-one behind.
❓ Who is this for?
🌱 For everyone who has a sustainability-related vision or a project they want to see come to life and succeed. The project can be a homestead, writing a book, starting a business, or finding a new direction, or anything else aiming to create a positive change in this world!
We've gotten some questions about the retreat, so here are some answers 🧵
