The Ways of the Old Community
Merry Meet!!
How would you like to have a safe, neutral place to take a spiritual retreat to in order to escape mundane life activities, for a weekend or even a week or more with people of like mind or just by yourself? Learn something new about yourself, discover different paths, meet new people. A place to reconnect with nature? Relax in our meditation gardens, with a walk in the woods or visit our Shrine. Bring your tent or camper and relax a while! Future plans include cabins! Each site will have their own fire pit and grills will be accepted with restrictions. Currently no electrical or water hookups – Possible future option with wind and solar power.
Maybe you’d like to purchase true natural items like foods, candles, or incense? We’ll offer a variety of items in our store including the above mentioned, either hand or home made by us with the items we grow on site.
Well that’s our dream and just what we are creating on 46 acres in scenic Western New York at The Ways of the Old! We have many future plans as we grow leading to a Wiccan based Pagan community with community (free) gardens and greenhouse, farmer’s market, regular semi and annual events with vendors and live music, various classes, study groups, and rituals along with a number of local volunteering/donation projects such as hospitals, animal shelters, chemotherapy patients and food banks/soup kitchen’s among others.
Currently we are fundraising to help us with the costs of building the Shrine, store, necessary legal fees and other start-up and planning costs:
http://teespring.com/twoto – Unique, one of a kind shirts available in different styles, sizes, and colors! Preorder only until Friday March 28! Be one of the few to own the first shirt dedicated to The Ways of the Old!
http://creeksideauctions.com – Our public auction site. Also offer classified and want ads along with different auction formats. If you would like to donate or sell please contact us for a discount voucher, available for a limited time only!
If you know of other ideas for fundraising or would like to donate a portion of your sales please contact us.
We post updates on our Facebook and GoFundMe pages of progress made and goals reached along with our next steps/course of action. Photos will also be added where possible.
We are also considering an advisory board to assist us with planning and ideas. If you are interested please contact us. It would be helpful but not necessary to be able to meet us on location at times.
