“The taproot of some trees remains even after the top has been shaved off by sheep. We’ve got to make for modern times new growth that’s rooted in ancient spiritual bedrock’ ”

— Tom Forsyth, quoted by Alistair McIntosh, Soil and Soul.

How does this course work?

This course is designed as a live, interactive learning journey. It combines online learning (through videos and practical projects) with an ongoing community participation and reflection.

Rather than a static series of recordings, it follows the model of cohort‑based courses where learners meet regularly in real time, deepening their practice between sessions, and receive ongoing guidance and learn from one another as they apply what they are learning.

This way participants aren’t just “watching” material, but are actively invited into a learning community, returning month after month to share how they integrate the work, reflect on the themes and engage that into their lives. This keeps the course alive, allowing it to repond to peoples needs while offering support rather than a static one off insight.
