HARVEST THE MEDICINE

OUR NEW 1O-PART COLLECTIVE INTEGRATION JOURNEY

Including live online gatherings over the next three months, led by Wisdom Carriers, speakers and friends from across the Medicine family.

REGISTER & JOIN HARVEST THE MEDICINE

WE BEGIN 25TH AUGUST

After everything we shared on the land together, we wanted to create some space for what comes afterward Medicine 2026. A little time to land, to notice what opened or shifted during those days, and to listen to what we might want to carry with us into the months ahead.

.

It comes from a question we’ve been sitting with for some time: 
how do we carry what we experience at Medicine home with us?

.

Together, we’ll begin with our own inner paths of healing, before gradually turning our attention outwards, exploring how we tend our relationships, strengthen our local communities, deepen our connection to the land and put some of what we experience at Medicine into practice in our everyday lives.

.

Harvest the Medicine is open to everyone, whether you were with us this year or not.

There is no paywall and you can join by donation, giving whatever feels possible for you.

 

REGISTER & JOIN HARVEST THE MEDICINE

We’ll begin close to home, giving some attention to our own inner worlds and to the experiences we’re still making sense of following the festival.

.

As the weeks unfold, we’ll start to look beyond ourselves too. At our relationship with Nature and the land around us. At community, ceremony and ancestral ways of being. At regenerative ways of living, land-based activism and some of the practical ways we can care for and contribute to the places we call home.

.

We’ll be joined along the way by Pat McCabe, Kate Raworth, Mac Macartney, Justin Adams, Paul Powesland, Annie Spencer, Sylvia Lindsteadt and others, with more voices joining as the journey develops.

.

Towards the end of the journey, we’ll begin weaving these threads into the Medicine Mycelium Network, exploring how the spirit of Medicine can become something we live and put into practice throughout the year. Rooted wherever our community is, the network will support people to take action where they live, direct small grants towards pro jects they care about, and bring more energy and resources to the work happening on the ground.
