What an amazing group of individuals you all are. TreeSisters started 2021 with trepidation as the world faced so many continued challenges. Yet, we celebrated and embraced the moments of togetherness like never before. Of course, uncertainty still lies ahead, but together, we can create an overflow of love. At TreeSisters, 2021 was a year of planetary love, leading to 7 million more trees in the ground and we can’t wait to see what 2022 holds! We are so grateful for each of you and celebrate the wonder of you.

In this video Terra Canova our Network Relations Manager shares her gratitude for our network as well as the events and blogs for January....

This month, you are invited to…

• Hear an important message from Pat McCabe on the 11th of January for our Indigenous Wisdom for the Earth series.

Our January Indigenous Wisdom for the Earth call features a presentation on the Living Nature series from Flourishing Diversity. This call features Pat McCabe, Woman Stands Shining, and discusses opening to life for guidance, being open to mystery and passionate for all life has to bring. This is a perfect way to start the new year, by focusing on what really matters. Hosted by Clare Dubois, Founder of TreeSisters. Join our mailing list to hear more.

Join us on the 17th of January, to explore the forest floor each full moon guided by Abi Denyer-Bewick. This is an invitation to enter the tiny universe of wonder beneath us when we encounter a forest.

What richness there is, so much life supporting life, communication, and interdependence. The complex root systems and mycorrhizal networks, insects, spiders, lichens, mosses and so much more. These gatherings are an opportunity to slow down and listen. Just as these life forms are constantly listening and communicating to create harmony and balance, so are the voices within us. Communications and memories held in our bodies given the space and opportunity to be heard can arise and be safely expressed. Come and be welcomed, drop into and pause under the bright light of the fullness of the moon. This is a chance to be together across the world to create poetry together from our interactions with the life of the forest floor.
