I am not skilled enough with words to describe the experience at the farm. This was my third retreat there - the minute I step off the ferry, I breathe easier. The food is absolutely spectacular. The staff could not be more welcoming and lovely. Taryn and Dawn are their own kind of magic - there is plenty of space for alone time or for soulful, meaningful conversations that involve no BS or small talk - right to the guts. This is not an easy trip to make from NY but it is beyond worth it and fills me up every time. Do not hesitate if you are on the fence. xoxo

I am a 76 year old woman in my 17th year of recovery from alcohol and other addictions.I have been struggling the past year to find my way to recover from complex PTSD.As soon as I heard about thie Retreat focussed on "trauma informed yoga",I knew I had to go,even though I have not done Yoga for about 40 years. I found Taryn to be an incredible guide to befriending our bodies and opening our hearts through this practice.She somehow customized the sessions so each woman could go on her own journey at her own pace.My life has changed. This Retreat was well worth the investment and I recommend it without reservation to any woman serious about her recovery. Dawn,thank you also for your steady unwavering support. The Farm is the perfect supportive environment for this work providing a sacred space for transformation.I have attended many personal development seminars and courses over the years and have never been able to be so vulnerable and therefore experience so much change in such a few days. I thank you both from the bottom of my heart. Judith B.

I look forward to this truly sacred time; devoted solely to myself every year. The Farm seems to have some spiritual, magical properties that makes time stand still so that there is time to recharge and reflect. Taryn and Dawn are the most perfect facilitators that are available whenever you need them, and yet somehow, just hover in the background so as to not influence the healing journey that is meant to be discovered. The food is fresh and delicious and the accommodations are comfortable and homey. If there were 2 of these a year (different times of year....) I would do whatever it takes to be at both.
