Celebrating another amazing anniversary of our QTBIPOC Sangha!

Our Sangha has continued to be a space for reflection, healing, and building meaningful relationships within our QTBIPOC community.

In honor of our anniversary, we gathered to celebrate the connections we've cultivated and reflect on the ways we've grown, both individually and collectively.

As we welcomed a new season, we spent time reflecting on two important questions: What are we ready to let go of, and what are we calling into this next chapter of our lives?

Together, we explored what it means to release the things that no longer serve us while making room for new intentions, experiences, and possibilities. These conversations reminded us that growth isn't always about adding more to our lives. Sometimes it's about learning what we no longer need to carry.

At Earthlodge, we recognize that healing is not something we have to navigate alone. Our Sangha continues to offer a space where we can show up as our full selves, share our experiences, listen to one another, and practice collective care.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey and helped nurture this community over the years. As we move into another season together, may we continue to honor where we've been, embrace where we are, and make room for who we are becoming. 💜

BLU 2026 was a beautiful gathering of Black le***an joy, healing, and community!

Through drumming, dancing, laughter and moments of rest, we came together to celebrate the beauty of being in community with one another.

These gatherings remind us of the importance of creating spaces where Black le***ans can simply BE, reconnect with themselves, and nurture the relationships that sustain us.

Alongside the celebration, Earthlodge facilitated a full **Worker Rights Workshop**, where we shared knowledge about our rights in the workplace and the importance of protecting ourselves and our communities at work.

At Earthlodge, we understand that our healing and liberation are deeply connected to the conditions we live and work in.

Wellness does not exist separately from the struggles we face every day. Knowing our rights, sharing resources, and building collective power are all part of how we care for ourselves and one another.

We carry so much gratitude for Black Le****ns United and everyone who helped make this gathering possible.

BLU 2026 reminded us that joy, rest, political education, and collective care all have a place in the ongoing work of liberation.

May we continue to create spaces where we can learn, heal, celebrate, and grow together.

☀️⚡ The Earthlodge is now ready to support solar panels and EV charging! The electrical upgrades we shared are laying the groundwork for what comes next: bringing solar energy and electric vehicle charging into the future of our sanctuary.

🌿 For us, caring for the Earth includes caring for the spaces where we gather—and the people whose labor keeps those spaces thriving. These improvements are part of tending the Earthlodge with future generations in mind, so our sanctuary can continue to grow alongside the community it holds.

We’re grateful to XFM Electric [email protected] whose skill and care helped make this next chapter possible. Working with a worker-owned cooperative puts our commitment to workers’ rights, dignity, and collective power into practice. To the tradespeople who build, repair, and strengthen our community: your work is part of the care that sustains us. 💛 Help us celebrate this milestone! Share this post, show .coop some love, and follow along as we take our next steps toward a more sustainable Earthlodge. 🌎

What a beautiful weekend at the Earthlodge! 🌿💚 We're blessed by the love of our Earthlodge family and the generosity of our community as we came together to bring EL2, our new Earthlodge expansion, to life. A special thank-you to Pamelah, who drove 15 hours to volunteer her time and lead our painting party!

Together, we danced, sang along to her incredible playlist, and filled each room with healing colors and intention. The EL2 now includes a program office, a healing space for doulas, Reiki practitioners, and massage therapists, and an open indoor gathering space for programming when El Niño brings us indoors. Our hearts are full of gratitude for every person who showed up to help create a space rooted in healing, connection, and community. This is what it looks like when we build something beautiful together! 💚

Over the last few months we've been collecting seeds from the medicinal plants growing on the land: Basil, Amaranth, Sunflower, and White Sage. When folks pull up to Hands on the Land, we sit with the seeds and enjoy the slow and tedious process of cleaning and sorting them into jars. The jars go into our seed library that grows with every passing week. Thank you to the Earthlodge volunteer community members that show up month after month!

Check out the eggplants we're growing in our Buddhist Community Garden at the Earthlodge! Learn how to garden by joining us for our monthly In Person Meditation gatherings for mindful gardening and Hands on the Land (happening this Saturday 10/17)!
