Location

Just one hour outside of Huntsville, Alabama, our retreat will be held in the serene and scenic rolling hills of Pulaski, Tennessee; a peaceful, rural setting that offers the perfect environment for rest, reflection, and reconnection.

Surrounded by wide open skies, soft grass underfoot, and quiet wooded paths, this space allows us to truly unplug and ground ourselves in the land.

We’ll be staying in a black-owned private manor where participants will share sleeping rooms.  Meals will be prepared with care and shared together.
