What we’re about
🌳 Welcome to the Crossing Hedgerows Circle Meetup - at Crossing Hedgerows Farm and Sanctuary!
Would you like to become more attuned to your own vitality and that little voice within that knows what's best for you (otherwise known as your intuition)? Through the integration of spirituality and ecology you will see how your own inner healer is always there and ready to show you the way to greater alignment in your life.
🌀
Facilitated by Jean Cavanaugh, in each session we will dive into a topic, sample food using our farm fresh ingredients, and experience the healing of earth, water, air, and fire on the land of Crossing Hedgerows.
🌀
There will be a variety of activities such as meditation, art, gardening, singing, crafts, magic, homesteading skills, and more! During our meet-ups, we will spiral through the different permaculture zones, as well as the elements, to gain greater understanding of our ecosystems and how to become empowered in our lives to create ever more inner and outer resiliency and abundance. Our approach will be with openness and curiosity, rather than doom and gloom negativity.

Jean has a passion for exploring, and sharing the best of what she has discovered with others. She began organic gardening with her kids over 20 years ago, which blossomed into regenerative farming, homesteading, and rewilding of 20 acres of land along with her family for the past 10 years. She also has been engaged over that time in building community around the land by hosting gatherings such as seasonal celebrations, work days for skill building, nature walks, workshops, bonfires and potlucks. She homeschooled her two children throughout their school years, supporting them as they followed their passions.
Over the years, as various serious health conditions began to creep up, Jean began looking into many different holistic modalities. She knew that she was on the right path with a holistic lifestyle, but there were some significant dots that had not yet been connected. Finding her way back to herself through the groundbreaking program by Dr. Kelly Brogan, Vital Mind Reset, became a catalyst for understanding that healing ourselves (physically, mentally, and spiritually) is the foundation for all other work we do in the world. It is arguably the most important work we can do. She is now a certified coach for the Vital Mind Reset program.
Jean also has degrees in anthropology and history, though she no longer sees reality through the lens of mainstream indoctrination. Learning ancient wisdom through her own investigations into many resources, as well as following the Druid path and studying with the Order of Bards Ovates and Druids has led to a much deeper understanding of the truth of who we are and where we came from. We have way more power than most of us believe!

Each session is $25 (or $20 for those at the "Friends" level or above on our Patreon - at Crossing Hedgerows Sanctuary). Payment for meet-ups will go directly to Jean as the facilitator, and not to her nonprofit. Please pay in cash upon arrival. RSVP is required at least two days prior to the meetup so she can plan appropriately. Some sessions may have extra charges to cover the cost of materials.
