Belonging, commitment and trust
Our Village rhythm is completely bespoke and unique. We craft it around each season's current members and their needs. It is built on our values of aiming to serve each member best, to provide them with a sense of belonging, somewhere they can rely on that will help them in this season of family life. Rising Rooted Village is somewhere we can commit to each other, to show up for each other, and trust that we'll be there each week for each other. (Obviously things and illnesses come up and that's ok!) We ask that families commit to attending for a whole season to honour the depth of connection that we are building between families. New families are invited to join us for a one-off ‘trial day’ and should you chose to join the Village we ask that you book for the remaining weeks of the current season.
What's in a membership?
Each day at the village will include:
One or more (depending on the length/scope of activity) facilitated family sessions in the garden (such as guided shared projects like crafts, foraging, building, cooking, nature art, etc) suitable for all ages
One facilitated, nourishing adult session in the yurt or other secluded spot. (In our infancy as a village this may need to be offered on a rotational basis and therefore be less than once per day, ie once in every two village days).
Intentional time together as a whole village, for small yet important daily rituals like welcome round the fire, ‘breaking bread’ together at lunch, closing the village at the end of the day.
Opportunities for healing and relational repair work (such as authentic relating circles, conscious parent coaching). The necessary ‘inner work’ that will foster the depth of connection and joy within the village and at home.
Plenty of time for free play, for tea, rest, and time spent simply ‘being’ in community in a stunning natural environment.
All materials for facilitated sessions, drinking water, tea, coffee and snacks (with the exception of our shared lunch when this is provided).
Also included in your membership:
One Village Council meeting per season where we will host an opportunity to share ideas and feedback on the running of the village in open-hearted discussion, as well as how we intend to move forward as a community. This will be a sacred ritual that will deepen with every turn of the seasonal wheel and we love that we are building traditions like this together.
One Family Celebration Day per season, for the entire family - so partners, siblings and other family members who do not attend the weekday village offering to have a chance to come together and benefit from being in community.
Conscious Parenting Journey - held one evening a week as a group zoom call, to align our parenting values and help guide our interactions from a place of love and understanding both within the Village and at home.

There will be roles that require a bespoke agreement, such as for larger roles like Lunch Cooks and services offered outside of Village hours (such as bookkeeping, social media marketer, fundraising).

As the Village grows and evolves there will be more roles available, including paid roles. As a Community Interest Company we are also eligible for grants and funding. In the future, we hope to be able to offer funded or part-funded places for low income families to make our Village accessible to all, so watch this space!
