Program Details

Each morning you’ll have an optional meditation and breath work experience before finding your belongings transported to your new daily domain - approx 100 acres of your own private forest.

Your day will be guided privately by unique forest therapy principles daily - inspired by “shinrin yoku” the Japanese practice of forest bathing.

In the evening you’ll meet up at Three Oak Circle to share what you’re experiencing with the rest of the group. Each day ends with communal dinner and meaningful activity.

On the last day, we’ll share in a rite of passage ceremony before returning home.

Your Forest Home

Each one of your seven forest homes will welcome you with a cheerful and spacious classic bell tent. Inside you’ll find a queen size bed and comfy mattress. Each comes with a tastefully unique decor to contemplate nature, relax and reconnect.

Our staff will guide you to your new location each day and bring your belongings. You simply enjoy the forest as you get introduced to unique environments daily.

Each forest home has a swing, hammock and compost toilet. Bathing and showers are centrally located.

Food and Surprise

We have partnered with a wonderful local vegan restaurant to provide a variety of compassionate, healthy and shockingly delicious meals for you.

Each night we dine communally with a prepared meal. As you head to your forest home, you’ll be given a goody bag with your breakfast and lunch.

Expect at least two surprises throughout the week.

Starts on Sundays at noon and departs on Saturday at 2pm.

SUGGESTED Contribution

We use transparent pricing intentions to show you our thoughts so you can see that this is a labor of love. See the cost breakdown here. To ensure the healthy future of Just Love Forest and its team, we suggest a contribution of $1,500 per guest. This includes all meals, accommodation and programs for one person per week. You may be offered add-ons for the week as personal sessions with staff but those would be at your discretion and in addition to the core program.

If you wish to come as a couple, family or group of friends staying in the same tent, we can accommodate two queen beds in each tent. Suggested contribution for this is $1,500 for the first guest and $1,000 for each additional guest in your tent. For example, four people would pay a total of $4,500.

If you feel you want to offer something other than this, whether that’s more to help fund things or less because you need to, then we’d love to hear what feels right to offer. We’re all on beautifully unique paths, including our relationships with money. We want to do what we can to offer the healing forces of the forest to all in need. Discounts are offered for caregivers, teachers and students if needed. If you’d like to discuss a work trade agreement to fund some or all of your experience, we are open to that. We require 50% upon confirming your reservation and 50% upon departure.
