SUMMARY:Nature Writing Retreat at Yale Camp\, Great Mountain Forest
DESCRIPTION:An immersive three-day writing retreat takes place August 7–9\, 2026 at Yale Camp\, 209 Chattleton Road\, Falls Village\, CT 06031. \nHosted by Great Mountain Forest\, this inaugural Nature Writing Retreat invites writers of all levels to draw inspiration from a 6\,400-acre forest landscape rich in history and natural beauty.
