The actual price of this year-long workshop series—including the retreat cost and virtual workshop facilitation—is $1,001 per person. We are offering the series on a sliding scale, along with using a monthly payment structure (the true cost rate being $77/month), to make this offering accessible to the most people.

Thank you for supporting our ability to offer this course to everybody; pay full cost if you can, and more if you are able for those who cannot!

Pricing Tiers:

$2,886 or $222/month

As you consider what to pay, please take into account your own income, any safety nets (via partnership, family, etc) that you have access to, your debt and care giving responsibilities, investments and land ownership, and anything else that impacts your finances. you might find worts & cunning’s green bottle sliding scale model helpful in assessing where you fall!

Please be in touch with Linden if you need to pay less than $11/month, or would like to barter.

*Our lowest payment tier and barter/trade options are prioritized for low–income people who identify as either trans*/gender-nonconforming OR Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.

Due to the limited size of this retreat space, we cannot offer refunds. If a participant has an access need that facilitators are not able to meet, we will offer a partial refund based on the number of gatherings remaining.

In-person events are hosted both inside at accessible locations, and outside on moderately uneven terrain.

Videos and Zoom events include closed captioning.

All practices are trauma-informed and include options and choice.

We encourage participants to show up as they are – we recognize all of our inherent worthiness to connect and learn!

As facilitators we will occasionally name the impact of white supremacy, patriarchy, colonialism, capitalism, etc. but our focus will be on joyful connection to ancestral knowledge and practices.

We will ask you about any access needs you have after you register and pay, but feel free to be in touch with Linden at linden@thevenerations.com if you have questions or requests.

This workshop series features 2 in-person retreats taking place over multiple days. Retreats are located in Wisconsin about 30 minutes outside of Duluth on the South Shore of Lake Superior at Camp Amnicon.

Sleeping arrangements are summer camp bunkhouse style with multiple people per room, but there are many additional private areas throughout the Lodge for personal space.

We welcome people of all family histories, lineages, and racial and ethnic identities to this course! If you resonate with the premise of gathering together in community to seek and share wisdom around healing lineage and collective liberation, you’re welcome to join us!

Both Dedications founders, Linden and Carolyn, identify as White folks with settler histories and can only bring who we are to our roles.

 In years past, we have offered a BIPOC-only small group, a dedicated time and meeting space for folks in Dedications who identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or people of color.

Depending on the identities and desires of participants, we will offer this again and/or bring additional BIPOC teachers to our virtual and in person gatherings.

While we spend much of our gathering time outside, we will be sharing air inside. Our indoor meeting space uses both air filters and Far UVC sanitizing lights, but we do also require all participants to test for COVID on the day of the gathering.(We have tests and N95 masks available if needed.) 

We recognize that these protocols may not be inclusive for everyone. We value in person connection and being able to see faces, and this feels the best way forward at this juncture.

If you have additional COVID safety needs, please contact Carolyn  to dialogue about navigating them.
