Harvest Gathering 2002On September 6-8, 2002, over 200 people gathered at a beautiful campground in Becket Mass., to participate in the 5th annual Harvest Gathering. The sacred fire, superb weather, wonderful people, great activities and secluded campground all contributed to make the weekend healing and magical. Friendships and connections were made that will last a lifetime. Thank you to all who came, especially teachers, elders, volunteers and participants. We look forward to many more Harvest Gatherings.
