Welcome to the Woolshed

The Woolshed is a farm of 136 acres situated on the hills of Pukerua Bay, clothed in 40 acres of native bush, including some of the last remaining stands of kohekohe on the Kapiti Coast. The original Woolshed building with its stunning views over Kapiti Island has been converted into a home and retreat spaces, as well as work and seminar spaces for up to 20. The Woolshed is gardened organically – herbs, vegetables and fruit – and has three springs of clear water. Pamela Meekings-Stewart is the owner and manager of ‘this little piece of paradise’. Nature in all her hues and moods is nurtured and respected here and as well as offering retreat and workshop spaces, The Woolshed hosts an open Druid Grove (Spirit in Nature) celebrating the eight Seasonal Festivals of the year and a Full Moon Circle for women.

WINTER

The time of Potential
The promise of things to come
The Life Force of new growth, yet unseen
Little group life, bare trees, absent birds
Stark landscape, no shelter
The inner warmth of germination
The shiver reflex and energy from movement
A Time of sensitivity to the Moving Sun,
Of appreciating fire and light
A time of Imagining and Anticipation
