Rest. Read. Reconnect.

Fern & Fiction began with a longing to find time to truly read again, not in hurried moments, but in wide stretches of calm surrounded by nature and kindred spirits. As a lifelong reader and educator, our founder envisioned a space where readers could step away from daily noise, reconnect with books that move them, and rediscover the joy of unhurried thought. Fern & Fiction grew from that seed—a retreat experience that honors reading as both pleasure and practice, solitude and connection.
 

I believe that reading is an act of rest and renewal. Fern & Fiction retreats invite you to put aside your to-do list, open a book, and breathe deeply, with no pressure, no assigned reading, and no agenda beyond presence.
