In the season ahead, our focus gathers around a few shared intentions.

We begin with the forest. Aging spruce trees are gradually removed and replaced with native species—silver fir, beech, maple, birch, ashes and willows at the creeks. The wood that emerges is used for building a bee house and for other needs on the land.

Goltnik’s Stream calls for long-term restoration. As we gather the knowledge and partnerships needed, we begin by removing invasive species and adding natural materials from the surrounding area to help renew the streambed and the conditions for life in and along the water.

The meadows open in two directions. One becomes a place of memory, with trees chosen and planted together in honour of those we have lost. Another gradually turns into a field of buckwheat and other nectar-rich plants, nourishing soil, people, and pollinators. As time and energy allow, part of the meadow may also become a second garden.

Bees are a gift and a responsibility. We are gradually growing toward three colonies and preparing space for a future beehouse, supporting long-term care and continuity.

During the warmer months, the land asks for many hands. As most work is done without machinery, openness, care, and good will are always welcome. This is an invitation to share time, knowledge, or simply the rhythm of working and being together.
