Our events

We believe that coming together to celebrate and deeply be together is potent, much needed medicine in our current society.

We also believe in the empowerment that comes through skill building and that this translates to a long term investment in community resilience. Everybody has something to learn and something to teach! We would like to reclaim and embody ancestral knowledge and salvage disappearing skills. We want to learn with our community how to best care for ourselves and each other.

We host learning laboratories, such as wilderness first aid and protest safety skills, disaster preparedness and wellness, and many other skills- based workshops. Additionally, members of our community offer sessions you can attend, such as yoga classes and healing modalities.. We are interested in collaborating with you! Our calendar is constantly changing.

Testimonials

“The support from the Sweetwater Hill team is thoughtful and seamless.”
– Catherine GobronExecutive Director, LightHouse Holyoke
“Our group had an amazing time at our first retreat at Sweetwater. The hosts are so welcoming. The views out the windows and the great flow of fresh air made it especially great. Also, the light was beautiful.”
– Performance Project Collective
“The experience is everything you might want in a countryside homestead setting. The staff is gracious and eager to accommodate requests for event amenities.”
– Amelia
“I led a workshop for high school students at Sweetwater Hill. The space was perfect: beautiful, calm, comfortable, and created an atmosphere where the students really felt they were "far away" on retreat in a really cool place. Pandora was really helpful getting us set up and stopping by to see if we needed anything. This is a warm, flexible, and inviting space. The students talked about it for months afterwards. We loved it!”
– Susan DailyThe Hartsbrook School
“I particularly appreciate the high level of communication amongst the staff and organization when it comes to planning an event. There is a sense of abundance, generosity, and willingness to be accommodating, which really goes the distance. I would also speak to the vibrancy and dedication to diversity of all kinds, both in how the staff communicates and how thoughtfully the property is designed to accommodate accessibility.”
