Our Upcoming events
Join us in person to learn, experience & heal in community
Drum Circle Offering with Jo Anne Parker
Join us in sacred rhythm, where each heartbeat meets the drum. In this circle, we gather not to perform, but to remember—to listen, to feel, to express. Through the ancient language of drumming, we awaken connection: to ourselves, to one another, and to the pulse of something greater. No experience is needed—only the willingness to be present. We will drum, breathe, and be together in a space of safety, rhythm, and release. Bring your own drum if you have one—or come as you are. Instruments and hearts will be shared.
Applefest 2026
Join us for Applefest!
Sudbury is an apple growers paradise! Yes, its true! We have been growing apples for over 25 years, and we are showcasing local varietals for fresh eating and drinking.
Apple Tasting - We will have some tasting sheets to record the culinary elements of the apples.
Apple Cider Pressing - We will have Phil’s industrial apple chopper and bladder press on site to make the best cider you have ever tasted! The most delicious cider comes from mixing crab apples and having at least some apples with red skin. If you have an apple tree in your yard, or on your street, please bring them and help us process them. If you want to bottle your own personal cider, please make arrangements with Phil at Beautiful Fields Farm, and you can go out to the farm to press. The press can also do pears, so if you have your own pears, we can make a batch of perry, too. Grapes do not work in this press.
Recipes - Learn about making cider, fresh or fermented and making your very own apple cider vinegar!
Buy an Apple Tree: Meet local apple orchardist Phil Beauchamp from Beautiful Field Farm and get all of your questions answered about orcharding in the north! Fall is a great time to plant an apple tree!
For All Ages: Family‑friendly and free; children’s activities and hands‑on experiences welcome.
If you have too many apples for your own use, we are accepting donations of apples at Seasons Pharmacy and Culinaria, 815 Lorne Street starting on Tuesday, September 8, or just bring some with you on Saturday. We will sort the apples for tastings and making community apple cider on Saturday! Please document the name of the varietal and where it was grown.

Living Fully alive, a new paradigm for changing times
Join Joelle for an evening of conversation that has the potential to transform your life. We will explore a body of knowledge that becomes a gateway to a new way of being, one that starts inside of you. This paradigm is base on internal referencing: your body as a quantum biological processor, not something to fix, but an intelligent interface for truth, signal and transformation. A process of accelerated personal evolution, rooted in modern science, expressed through simple models, clear language, and embodied integration. At its heart? An invitation to remember who you are, so you live fully awake, fully alive and fully in charge of your own emergence.

Nourish Your Metabolism and Protect Your Vision
Your vision matters, especially in midlife.
Many women notice changes in their eyesight as they move through their 40s and 50s:
• Blurry vision
• Dry, irritated eyes
• Difficulty seeing at night
• Increased eye strain and fatigue
What many don’t realize is that these can also be early signs of deeper imbalances connected to blood sugar, inflammation, hormones, and overall metabolic health. Conditions such as macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy often begin developing long before symptoms become severe.
The good news? There is so much we can do proactively to support and protect our vision before disease begins.
Join Dr. Josée Poulin alongside Amber Fournier for an empowering evening focused on taking a holistic, functional approach to eye health in midlife. Hosted by Rachelle Rocha at Seasons Pharmacy and Culinaria.
We’ll discuss:
✅ Protecting your eyesight as you age
✅ The connection between metabolism, blood sugar, hormones & eye health
✅ Nutrition and lifestyle strategies for healthy vision
✅ Common eye concerns women experience in midlife
✅ Simple proactive steps you can start now
This is more than an eye health talk, it’s an evening of education, prevention, connection, and empowerment.
Introduction to Qi-Gong
What is QiGong? Qi Gong is Active Relaxation… it’s moving mediation to boost energy, relieve stress and balance our energy system. The relaxation exercises considers mind, body, and spirit all at once. QiGong is very broad: our class will be based on the first Five Elements Flows, a holistic system connected to our organs, senses and emotions.
What to expect? You will be guided through a series of warmups, stretches, soft gentle movements and standing postures. All movements are soft, slow and open to all skill levels. You’re essentially coming to enjoy yourself and to connect the mind to movement to breath. Through intentions and age old movements, we’re letting go of stress, consciously transforming the negative to positive and tuning our energy system to lighter, higher vibrations.

Line Perreault - Flow Fusion, Meditation in Motion
FlowFusion - Meditation in Motion
Your souls expression
Slow. Intentional. Movement. Embodied.
You’re invited to move, feel, and come home to your body.
FlowFusion is a trauma-informed, nervous-system-based embodiment practice that integrates cognitive awareness with physiological regulation to support emotional processing, expression, and self-trust. A somatic movement journey designed to soften the body, calm the nervous system, and create support for expression. Through a fluid fusion of modalities, EFT, Breath, tapping, Qigong, NLP, fascia releases, mediation and sound therapy, I created this practice to support, highly sensitive people, sensitive bodies, chronic pain, emotional suppression, and overactive minds, as well as anyone who want to explorer their edges, or feels hesitant to be seen or express themselves through voice and movement. this practice helps soften enough for the nervous system to feel supported and when that happens, expression, clarity, and healing unfold naturally.
We begin with guided fascia release, gently inviting ease, grounding, and presence. From there, movement unfolds organically from subtle micro-movements to more expansive flow allowing your body to lead and your inner rhythm and expression to emerge. This practice is lightly guided. You will be encouraged to find your own rhythm throughout.
Each session closes with a soft, nourishing sound and meditation to support integration and rest.
FlowFusion is not about doing it “right.”
It’s about listening, feeling, and letting your body lead you back home.
Cacao Ceremony and Sound Bath with Cindy Woodbury and Vicki Hartley
Join Cindy Woodbury and Vicki Hartley for a Sound Bath and Cacao Ceremony.
You are warmly invited to an evening of ceremonial cacao and sound meditation, a heart-centered gathering designed to gently bring you back into your body, your breath, and your inner landscape. Ceremonial cacao is a sacred plant medicine traditionally used by Indigenous cultures of Central and South America. It is known for its heart-opening, grounding, and mood-enhancing qualities, helping us soften, become more present, and drop out of the busy mind. Cacao doesn’t take you anywhere—it brings you home. It gently opens the doorway to feeling, reflection, and connection, preparing the body and nervous system to receive sound deeply. Following the Cacao, you will be guided into a sound journey with Vicki Hartley, where layers of healing sound and vibration will support relaxation, integration, and inner spaciousness. As the heart opens, sound moves more freely through the body—calming the nervous system, quieting mental chatter, and allowing whatever needs to arise or release to do so naturally. This is a space to rest, to listen, to feel, and simply to be—held in warmth, sound, and community. No prior experience needed. Come as you are.
Vicki offers a sound experience that creates a safe space to slow down, unwind and tune in. She uses sound as an entry point....a portal into the absolutely magical space where your body/heart/mind/nervous system finds deep rest.
Where brainwaves slowwwww down….✨
It is from this spaciousness that you may find yourself on a journey where inspiration + imagination run wild and free, expanding you into some daydreams that open your HEART and just light you up inside!
Cindy Woodbury is a Sudbury-based facilitator who guides cacao ceremonies and restorative sound baths designed to calm the nervous system and foster meaningful connection. Blending intention setting, meditation, and vibrational sound healing, she creates a welcoming space for reflection, emotional release, and inner clarity.
