Rolling Ridge Study Retreat
Community

Nature
Located on a 1600-acre nature preserve owned by the Rolling Ridge Conservancy and protected by a conservation easement with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy.

Exploring the connections of spirit, faith and the wild earth.

News and Happenings
Festivals for the Dark
During these intentional, festive days, we can deepen relationships with one another and with the living Earth and awaken to unseen realities that secretly sustain the world. We can open into the realm of the soul with its wondrous capacity for imagination, understanding, and joy. Then it may be possible to touch into all that is Holy and good and eternal.
Way Upstream
These are the surprising, intimate conversations that illumine the threads tethering us to the vast communion and belonging way upstream, at the headwaters, where the world is always ending and beginning again. Thus the trees save us, and daily.
The Cedars of Lebanon
Gratitude and grief are the tightly entwined melodies of the moment.

Where everything seems withheld.
The path you took to get here has washed out.
The way forward is still concealed from you.
The old is not old enough to have died away
The new is still too young to be born.”
-John O’Donohue
