a year, tended one season at a time.

We are built around three pillars: enneagram insight, seasonal wisdom, and creative practice.
The calendar year moves in four turns, and each turn holds its own theme.
Read more about each season below, and join an interest list for the ones that speak to you.

each season in Tend the Year has a rhythm.

It opens with a solstice or equinox gathering, a single evening . At the season's midpoint, folks on our email list receive a mid-season care package, a pdf with prompts and tools to work with as the season deepens. The heart of the season is a two-month circle, with live gatherings twice a month, curated and mailed packages, asynchronous teaching, and a small community holding the work together. The season closes with a Threshold Workshop, an onramp into the season coming next.

Read on for what each season holds, and see our offerings for what that actually looks like in practice.
