A celebratory weekend gathering to honor 50 Years of Women's stewardship of OWL Farm, and to magik up her future!!
The gathering will bring together women across generations; those who hold the history of the unique lesbian centric women's land culture that founded OWL Farm, and those eager to be in women's space, experience the land as it is now and dream the farm into her future.
The off-grid weekend will feature workshops, both planned and co-created, sharing circles for stories & songs, time for creativity and to experience the spirit of the land and her non-human residents and to make heart connections with women.
Expect a vibrant, joyful atmosphere filled with opportunities to learn, sing, laugh, explore and have fun in a rustic setting.
Vegan meals will be mindfully catered by Chef Danielle April and included in the cost of registration.
Accommodations will be tent camping and limited van camping.
If you need assistance with accessibility or camping equipment, get in touch.
What to Expect on the Land
All gatherings take place at OWL Farm Women's Land in Southern Oregon.
(Exact location and directions given after registration)
It is rural and off-grid land.
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
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.
Important: Information for Dog Owners
We understand that many women travel with their canine companions. However, to ensure the safety of our local ecosystem and the comfort of all participants, we have a strict dog policy in place. Please read this carefully before deciding to bring your dog.
The “On-Leash” Rule
For the safety of your pet and our resident wildlife, dogs must be kept on a leash at all times while on the land. There are no exceptions to this rule.
Barking
Camping with dogs can be a challenge. Because we are a community-focused gathering, excessive barking, especially at night, disrupts the peace and experience of other campers.
Zero-Disturbance Policy: If your dog is unable to remain quiet, we kindly ask that you do not stay on the land.
Alternative Accommodations: If you are concerned about your dog’s ability to adapt to a quiet camping environment, we highly recommend booking a pet-friendly Airbnb or a motel.
Nearby Lodging Options
For those who prefer to stay off-site with their pets, the cities of Canyonville and Roseburg are a short drive away and offer a variety of pet-friendly hotels and services. Staying in town ensures you have a comfortable base while still being able to join us for daytime activities.
Ticks
Please be aware that our region has a very high tick population. Ticks are active on the land, and it can be difficult to keep them off pets in a wilderness setting. If you choose to bring your dog, please ensure they are up-to-date on high-quality tick prevention and perform daily checks on your pet.
