We'd like to invite you to come visit us at Windward this Fall! We will have a work party in the afternoon where we work on a land-based permaculture or infrastructure project that is of importance to the community. There will be a campfire in the evening where you're invited to bring songs and stories to share.
This is an opportunity to come learn about Windward through experiences with the community. There will be the chance to see the community and several projects we are currently working on. You are welcome to camp out on the land Saturday night and depart sometime on Sunday.
Children are welcome, please leave your pets at home. RSVP by sending an email to windward@gorge.net
We look forward to welcoming you!

Arrival, Departure and Accommodations
The bunk house Adirondack
We like to keep departure times flexible in case you want a little more time the hang out, connect, spend time in the forest, and otherwise not rush back to the city.
The accommodations are primarily camping in our 40 acre campground.
The campground features a covered camping structure with 8 large bunks, as well as spaces for car camping.
If there is enough interest due to inclement weather or temperature sensative indivduals, we can also make available a cabin which is still partially under construction for the use of folks to set up their sleeping bags out of the elements.
Food
You will have access to a camp kitchen with cook stoves, pots and utensils if you'd like to bring something for the potluck that you'll want to cook or heat.
