Secure your spot. Make a reservation

We have curated a 2 day intensive program that would help you bring your ideas to live and transform them to fruition. Activate is divided into 3 parts. The first part is held online via zoom before and after the camp. While part 2 is held on day 1 of our camp. Part 3 is held on day 2. In between activities, you will have time to relax (Enjoy Yoga, Dance, walks and more) and enjoy the nature around you. Our program comes with 2 nights sleep-over, 2 breakfast, snacks for lunch and 2 special dinners where you will learn a profound traditional communal dining (Iboya & Fire) from some African cultures.

Iboya & Fire

Engage with African legend and teachings explored under the tree, around a large campfire, while enjoying communal traditional meals - Discover Vegetarian, mostly Vegan special African dishes.

In many African communities and tribes, it is a ceremonial experience for the elders of the village to gather the children and youths around a tree at sunset or deep moonlight, telling them tales of the land. These tales have hidden proverbs and idioms which offer lessons and historical teachings from African traditions. Knowledge was passed on from generations to generation in this style. From selected book readings to classic legends from African mythology, philosophy and spiritual practices. During this session, guests are encouraged to think along, ask questions and contemplate the text, legends and what it means for them and their ideas. To enhance program and your experience, we rekindle this tradition. 

Within our garden, a large camp fire is lit and dinner is prepared together. The idea of Communal Dining is for us to enjoy healthy wholesome plant-based dishes from around the world together. In many African communities, family, friends and strangers arrive at a party, drop all formalities and engage wholeheartedly celebrating and eating together. People talk, emotions are expressed and life can be wonderful. 

The communal dinner at Yellow Lodge is a ceremonial event. It begins only when everyone is ready to help create the experience. To be ready, you will need to drop your “luggages” of any kind and come in with an open mind. You engage by assisting to serve dinner and help decorate the table. When the feating space is ready, grab a pillow to settle down at your seat. Your host will offer a piece of gratitude for the moment and dinner can begin. 

Our dinners are curated especially for each session. We explore food from Africa to the Mediterranean and make sure to integrate some Austrian delicacies or at least bread, so everyone definitely finds something to eat. Sometimes you might go to the grill and roast your own bread rolls too. 

The truth passes through fire and does not burn.
