The future economy will be made of relationships rather than transactions. 

This is why a core part of our work at Be The Earth revolves around gathering people: building the connections through which change can flow.

And so, last week, we gathered with 90+ members of our South Africa community for four days of deep connection, rest and play. 

🌎 We were reminded: we are the earth.

🌎 We were reminded: that the earth needs our full human presence to thrive.

🌎 We were reminded: that we won the cosmic lottery — simply by being here.

Spaces like these are how we practise showing up. How we rehearse the future - for all the children yet to come. 

Thank you to everyone who came with open hearts, and left with fuller ones.

💛✨

🍄✨ When community gathers, mycelium becomes visible...

Gathering is the oldest technology we have — and the one a fractured world has most forgotten.

Last week, on the blessed land known as @42acresretreat, we gathered 100 community members for our UK Festival. 

After five years, we’ve stopped treating it as an event: it is a rehearsal. For four days, the community lives as if the regenerative economy were already here.

Sharing freely, relating and listening deeply, dreaming and unlearning, morally imagining, earth dancing, garden grazing, flow funding, bridge building, project mapping, wrestling with complexity, making space for simplicity, meditating, breathing, singing, renewing our vows to nature, creating the ponds where wealth can flow like water, resourcing life. Moving at the pace of trust rather than transaction. 

We rehearse the future because a future no one has practised cannot arrive.

The relationships that let capital move on trust, that let a network hold through disagreement, that let people stay in this work without burning out — these cannot be built on emails and good intentions.

They require shared time, shared place, shared presence — a shared uprising of joy.

So we gather in nature. 

Farmers and funders, activists and wisdom keepers, organisers and entrepreneurs, children and elders...weavers of the future, fast and slow, radical and gentle. We think hard, feel deeply, argue, sing and rest. 

We leave with one thing no financial exchange can deliver: the felt knowledge and lightness of being that we are not doing this alone — and a lived memory of how the future can feel.

🙏 Thank you to everyone who joined us. We cannot do this work without you. 💛

🎉 💫 Our 2025 Annual Report is Live 💫 🎉 

Dear friends, collaborators and co-creators of regenerative futures,

Reflecting on 2025, we are filled with deep gratitude. Gratitude for the journey, for the communities that walk with us, and for the living Earth that continually teaches, challenges, and inspires us.

Be The Earth is in her 6th cycle around the sun, and as a learning and experimental organisation has continued to deepen its regenerative practices towards a more eco-centric economy.

While 2024 focused on governance, structures, and strategy, 2025 revealed the collective fruits of those stronger roots — marked not only by what we achieved with partners, but by how we learned and evolved together.

2025 reminded us that transformation is relational: it happens in connection. Every partnership, shared meal, conversation, and moment of alignment with the land has been part of this unfolding.

We were heartened by feedback from our festival and wider community, and by the growing reach of diverse women through our Aura initiatives.

Regenerative futures are not abstract ideals — they are lived and shaped, step by step, with care. 

Moving into 2026, our resolve remains: to act not as patrons or owners, but as stewards and allies in a world that needs deep collaboration, presence, and reciprocity.

Thank you for your trust and openness to engage in the inner and outer work, and for walking this path with open hearts and evolving minds.

May we continue to grow more beautiful partnerships with ourselves, the living world and each other.

With love, 

Seth & Renata
