Special Events and Retreats
Gather in the woods for thoughtfully created experiences that invite creativity, connection, celebration, and a little unexpected magic.
As autumn deepens, we’re invited to notice what is ending, what remains, and what may be beginning.
Join us at Kozey Acres for a quiet, meaningful morning inspired by Samhain — a traditional seasonal observance marking the threshold between harvest and winter.
Together, we’ll learn a little about the history and meaning of Samhain, take a reflective walk through the woods, and gather for practices centered around remembrance, release, and renewal.
You’ll also create two keepsakes to carry the experience home with you: a beautiful candle and an herb satchel made with rosemary, mugwort, and evergreen — symbolizing remembrance, release, and what we choose to carry forward.
We’ll close with a simple fire reflection and a quiet moment with the candle before returning to the season ahead.

WILDLY ENCHANTED
A Woodland Hat-Making Workshop
If you missed it… here’s a little of the enchantment.
A table full of creativity, plenty of laughter, and one-of-a-kind hats made by hand. Take a peek at our Wildly Enchanted gathering—and imagine yourself at the next one.
Create a little woodland magic at Kozey Acres.
Gather around the campfire for a peaceful morning of creativity and connection. Using hand-foraged and carefully dried mushrooms, moss, feathers, and other forest-inspired treasures, you’ll transform a simple hat into a wildly enchanting, one-of-a-kind creation.
Your guide, Beth, brings more than 15 years of foraging experience and previously served as president of the Connecticut Valley Mycological Society. She’ll share her knowledge and creative guidance as you bring your woodland design to life.
No artistic experience is needed—just bring your imagination and a willingness to create something unexpected.
