welcome to
The Turning Year
We live through the seasons, but how often do we truly experience them?
The Turning Year is an invitation to slow down, pay attention and discover the remarkable changes taking place in nature throughout the year.
Through gentle reflections, guided listening and simple observations, we invite you to develop a deeper connection with the natural world — not just in spring and summer, but in every season.

A Year of returning
Familiar Places,
New Discoveries
Imagine returning to the same tree every month for a year.
In winter, you see the architecture of its branches. In spring, you watch the buds begin to open. Summer brings a canopy of leaves, while autumn reveals the gradual changing of colour
It is the same tree, but never quite the same experience. And as you return, you begin to recognise changes you might once have overlooked
