at The Lotus Feed Farm

 

Join us for 3 nights and 4 days at the gorgeous, rustic retreat center located in Occidental, CA, The Lotus Feed Farm. Unplug from the hustle and bustle of city life, allowing yourself to slow down and rejuvenate. Reconnect with yourself, with nature and with your sense of wonder. Allow yourself to be nourished with daily Pilates and Yoga classes, delicious organic farm to table meals, and being surrounded by nature.
 
We are simply delighted to be returning back for our second annual retreat at The Lotus Feed Farm. Not only are our hosts at The Farm outstanding humans and absolutely amazing cooks, they have created a unique and enchanted environment to retreat at.  We are thrilled to be hosting another retreat there, and hope that you will join us!
