Est. 1976 — Celebrating Five Decades

OWL Farm
50th Anniversary Celebrations

Fifty years ago, a vision was planted in this soil. The vision of commitment to stewardship, community, and the wild pulse of the land.

This June 2026, we gather to honor that legacy and seed the next half-century.

Our 50th Anniversary Celebration is more than just a party; it is a multi-layered immersion into the heart of our community. 

We begin with a 7-Night Land Immersion Campout. This is a structured, hands-on land immersion where we live in rhythm with the forest, share "living with the land" knowledge & skills, and cook our meals together.  

This flows into our Weekend Celebration. This 3-Night gathering featuring catered meals by Chef Danielle April, workshops, song circles, dancing, shared stories, and the collective joy of our milestone year.

Choose the experience that fits your flow.  Join us for a single segment of the gathering or stay for the full 11 Nights.

Come prepared to disconnect from the grid and reconnect with people and the land that have sustained this vision for five decades.

The 50th Anniversary Celebrations are for women only.

The DykeLand Revival

In conjunction with the OWL Farm 50th Anniversary, we are launching the DykeLand Revival.

Inspired by the enduring legacy of this soil, we are creating a platform to revitalize our interconnected network of women’s lands.

Our goal is to foster a space where others can share their own events, skills, and land-based projects, weaving our individual efforts back into a thriving, visible community.

By cross-pollinating our resources and stories, we aren't just celebrating one milestone...we are reviving the vital infrastructure of women’s lands for the generations to come.

50th Anniversary Experience

🌿 What to Expect on the Land


📍 Location
All gatherings will take place at OWL Farm Women's Land, a rural, off-grid women’s land in Southern Oregon. 
Being here is part of the experience. It is a unique opportunity to reconnect with nature, community, and a simpler way of living.

🌲 Off-Grid Living

There is limited infrastructure, and you can expect a more rustic environment. Come prepared to be adaptable and self-responsible in your care and comfort.

🚐 Arrival & Camping Access

Some camping areas may not be directly accessible by vehicle. Shuttle support may be available to help transport people and gear to designated camping spaces.

Please pack with mobility and simplicity in mind.

🦉 Wildlife & Nature

This is an active natural environment. You may encounter wildlife, insects, and ticks.

We recommend bringing:

  • Tick protection
  • Closed-toe shoes
  • Awareness and respect for the land and its inhabitants

🌦️ Weather Exposure

You will be outdoors for much of the gathering and exposed to changing weather conditions.

Please prepare for:

  • Sun and heat
  • Cool evenings
  • Possible wind or rain

🌿 A Shared Responsibility

Being on the land is a co-created experience. We ask all participants to come prepared, aware, and in respect of the land, themselves, and one another.

Come prepared...not for perfection, but for presence.
