Findhorn Garden Story

A Beautiful New Colour Edition of the Black & White Classic! Over 40 years ago, on windswept and barren sand dunes in the far north east of Scotland, a miracle was occurring. The most wonderful plants, flowers, trees and organic vegetables were growing to enormous sizes in a small plot around a thirty-foot caravan trailer inhabited by three adults and three children living on 8-a-week unemployment benefit. Guidance by God and absolute faith in the art of manifestation led them to this apparently unlikely place to create a magnetic centre which, they were told, would draw people from all over the world. Their discovery of how to contact and co-operate with nature spirits and devas made the seemingly impossible possible. The Findhorn phenomenon had begun. Today, that same caravan stands in tribute to the pioneering faith of its former residents, amid a thriving village housing hundreds of people from all over the world; alongside an organisation recognised internationally as a leading centre for spiritual learning and surrounded by innovative and ecological businesses. The garden has expanded and spawned a huge organic farming initiative feeding hundreds of people. And all this because of the commitment and dedication of those three founders, Eileen and Peter Caddy and Dorothy Maclean. The Findhorn Community is a living demonstration of what can come about when man co-operates with nature and the beings of higher worlds; when people are united by a common goal based on social, spiritual and ecological values.
