Thank you to everyone who joined for the 13th GMS!
We had an incredible experience at the Mendocino Woodlands for the 13th Greenermind Summit with a wide range of meaningful conversations, playful adventures, and connection with each other and nature.

The annual Greenermind Summit offers a magical mix of structured activities and unstructured time, to help you fill your cup in our community of awesome humans. Elements you can expect:
Group meals
Unconference sessions
Campfire songs
Costumes and dance parties
Group games
Solo reflection time
Mindfulness exercises
Napping inside old growth redwood stumps (no joke!)
And whatever you’d like to bring!
The entire experience is sourced from the community: you’re invited to create a workshop, lead an activity, or bring anything you’d like to share.
It doesn't matter what your job title is - you’re invited to step beyond the usual LinkedIn Profiles, set aside your email, breathe fresh air, laugh a ton, and build relationships around topics you’re passionate about.
The summit is hosted in a rustic lodge and cabins built in the 1930’s. We cater delicious healthy meals, and our volunteer crew brings in all of the equipment needed to produce an epic event.
There’s no wrong way to enjoy Greenermind: whether you attend every possible unconference session (or zero!), wander the redwoods for solo introspection, drop into deep conversation with new friends, or join the spontaneous dance parties in the kitchen—the event is a flexible container to help you source what you need in each moment.
If you have passion to share, if you want to meet new people with shared values, or if you just want to have a digital detox in nature—join us.
We welcome kids and families, with programming offered for children over age 5. Your kids will get a camp-like staffed experience in the redwoods while you enjoy your day.
