Go to the woods
Sit by a tree.
Climb the tree.
See the land as the tree see's it ...

We Remember

At Headwaters we remember how we humans were meant to live with; fun, art, friends, community, nature, purpose greater than ourselves, good working brain, creativity, healthy food, dogs, hard physical work, clean water, being heard, spirituality-no dogma-just feeling it, campfires, birds, squirrels, animals everywhere, tree sitting and climbing, elders, teaching, Mt. Shasta, creeks, flowers and so much more.

Waiting

It's a difficult time for our planet. We're not sure what to do or how. We often wait for a hero to show up and save the day. Look at you're reflection in a pool of water. There you'll find the hero. The time is now. Your time is now. The planet needs you. We wait and wait for help to come and all along it's been right in front of us. It's us, the humans. All that needs to be done is within us. We have what we need.

Headwaters Updates from Tim

Winter Shelter

What a year we had in 2012. Our year at Headwaters ended with a massive snow storm for 5 days. This equaled lots of digging, plowing and tractor work, and of course beauty beyond description. Mt. Shasta is quite simply glowing like a massive crystal.

Coming Home Again

Coming home to the natural world is where many people long to be today.

Summer Storm

Spending a summer up at Headwaters is something that cannot be completely expressed through words, but rather through a similar experience. One of the most memorable adventures happened with three other friends when I was thirteen years old.

Go to the woods.

Sit by a tree.
Climb the tree.
See the land as the tree sees it.
Become the tree.

Nature's Way, Tim Corcoran

Klamath National Wildlife Refuge, Winter Class

Nature fills our hearts.
Nature fills our souls.
Nature fills our minds.
Nature is what is real in life.

My Journey to Headwaters, Tim Corcoran

I was very lucky as a kid – perhaps because I’m Irish. From the age of six I spent much of my time in the woods, learning how to live in there from Nature herself. Nature was never an “other”. It was family, like a brother or sister, and I always felt safe and welcome.
