The Autumnal Equinox aligns exactly upon the lands of SkyRise at 8:44 AM and we will mark this pivotal moment of balance by lighting a morning ceremonial fire to remain stoked throughout the day.
8 AM ignition! Come by as you can! Say hi. Have a cup of tea. Take a breath upon the land. Make an offering to the fire. Perhaps find a new seasonal ally. Learn more about our offerings and gatherings for Fall!
The Undermow Studio will be open and abundantly set for Autumn, featuring of the moment energies- stones, herbs and natural beauty all found, foraged, or farmed, for guest perusal and purchase. The work of artist Anthony Masina will be hanging. Sarah will be doing a seasonal stone reading. There will be beauty. There will be community. Join us.
RSVP requested.
We look forward to welcoming you!

ABOUT SKYRISE FARM
SkyRise Farm is located amid the storied Hudson Valley, on close to 50 bucolic acres, along the Northeast corner of Dutchess County, in Millerton, NY.
Held by the rise of the Berkshires and Taconic Mountains to the East, with unparalleled views of Stissing Mountain and the Catskills visible to the West, the property is a mix of varied ecosystems and terrain, all meticulously cared for and part of ongoing regenerative efforts based in sustainable principles and rewilding initiatives under the stewardship of Vibrational Designer Sarah Rigano of FORM + LIGHT.
Inspired by the seasons and a deep connection to, and appreciation of, the subtle healing frequencies of the natural world, the intention of the Farm is to create conversations steeped in community and creativity, openings for greater physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being, through immersive experiences inspired by Earth-based wisdom traditions that honor the Divine interconnection of all things- celestial and terrestrial, seen and unseen.
