This seed has been planted by The Fellowship of the Trees, in collaboration with Earth Star CIC and BrightSky Community... three projects with interlinking visions for a better world. TREEgeneration BrightSky’s non-profit events have at their core an intention for personal, communal and ecological regeneration. TreeGeneration events are community events that celebrate the remembrance of nature as our true nature. When we support the earth to heal herself, we heal ourselves. When we heal ourselves, we are the earth healing herself. When we come together to listen to the land and plant trees, we are breathing into the dream of a healthier and more abundant future for our children and all life yet to come. The Fellowship of the Trees is a diverse collective of dedicated people from all walks of life with a shared dream. We have been kindly crowdfunded to the tune of £2000 and we are so grateful for all donations! We will plant each sapling as a blessing to the earth with the medicine of our love and gratitude. We will give thanks to our ancestors and express our hopes and wishes for those yet to come. Together we will pray for the healing of the Earth, and that we may all live in right relationship with ourselves, each other and our planet. Joining hearts, voices and drums, we’ll send out our prayer like an arrow to the cosmos! This is the first of many missions, and we are forming connections with different landowners and communities where we can continue this work. We hope our work to plant hundreds will soon grow into hundreds of thousands! We want to inspire others to do the same, across the UK and internationally.
