One special place. One final chance to secure it.

The Rothbury Estate is still at risk of being sold off and divided, but together we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure it for wildlife, people and future generations.

And an unprecedented opportunity to double your donation.

The Rothbury Estate is more than a beautiful place. It's 3,800 hectares of rivers, woodlands, grasslands, peatlands and open moorland, where wildlife still has the chance to thrive at a scale rarely seen in Britain today. Here, otters play in the River Coquet's tributaries. Merlins hunt across the o...

Join us for the next event in our Seasonal Celebrations Series as we welcome in Autumn and celebrate the second harvest.

The Autumn Equinox is a time of balance, when day and night stand equal before we move into the quieter season of rest and reflection. Together we'll gather to celebrate, eat and welcome the new season in.

Here's what you can look forward to:

🌿 Mindful arrival & nature connection
🚶‍♂️ Themed walk exploring local flora and fauna
🧙 Seasonal plant lore
🎨 Creative, therapeutic activities for all ages
🔥 Circle time by the fire for reflection
🌳 Space to rest, journal or simply be in nature
🎪 Circus Skills demonstration and workshop

💡 These celebrations are community-led, and we love bringing your ideas to life. Previous attendees asked for circus skills activities, which we've included before and will be bringing back.

We'd love to hear your suggestions for future events and activities too, so please reach out.

🍽️ As always, we'll share delicious locally provided food, meaningful conversation, folklore and fun in a welcoming community atmosphere.

Everyone is welcome, whatever your age. We are committed to making our events as accessible as possible, so please let us know about any accessibility requirements when booking so we can support you to take part comfortably.

As promised some more pictures for our Harvest Celebration last weekend. If you missed it, we have more great events coming up you can come and join.

The whole of August is celebrated in many cultures for a time of harvest, gratitude & celebration. A time to clear clutter, clean house and preparing the garden for the darker months.

For us it is a time to look at what supports us and what does not. What are we reaping from the harvest?
What needs to be let go of? and what needs to be put away for over winter.

As the nights start to draw in, celebrate this height if summer and prepare for the cooler, darker months ahead.

Our Equinox gathering will be Sunday 20th September, we will also be welcoming a special guest to come and share some juggling and other circus skills with us (as requested at a previous gathering).

Get your tickets here (bookings end at 6pm on Friday 18th September)
We also have some free tickets available as well as opportunities to come and volunteer, see our the link below for more information or get intouch if you have any other questions or requests.

Blessings of the first harvest to you.
This time of year is celebrated across the world in many cultures, who give thanks to the earth, in temples and churches and in communities. It is a time to give thanks for the harvest.

Not just the fabulous bounty of food from the earth,
Each kindness is a harvest.
Each relationship
Each time we grow through hardship
Each sacrifice we make for the betterment of others
The seeds we planted in spring may be fruitful now, or they be quietly taking root beneath the soil.
I encourage you to take a moment to pause long enough to recognise your own growth and what you have sacrificed for the betterment of others.

We gathered yesterday to celebrate the season, with feasting, community and gratitude.

Thank you to all who came and added your special spark to the fire, it is a joy to see this community grow and connect.

Thank you to The Auckland Shanty Singers for delighting us with songs of sailors and comunity and thank you to our amazing crew that truly reflect the power of coming together to reap the harvest for the abundance and wellbeing of the community.

We received such beautiful feedback including:

"Just wanted to say thankyou for today, I must say, today was the first time in many years where I've gone somewhere new, met new people and felt instantly at home without anxiety. Thank-you for welcoming us and for the vibes we got sent home with, can't wait for the next one, see you all soon"

Whatever you faith, background or culture we wish you a blessed harvest season

So many more wonderul photos to share... watch this space 🥰

Links here for our Equinox and future events this year, hope you can join us to celerate the seasons together.
