This five-day experiential seminar will examine the sources of addiction in our individual histories and in our culture, and connect us with the inner wholeness which is the final and only answer to addictive drives. This retreat is not for currently active substance users. Gabor Mate M.D., is a physician, counsellor, and seminar leader whose books have all been Canadian bestsellers and have also been published internationally in over ten languages on five continents.

This daytime market offers regional farm produce and a variety of products. A majority of the food and goods sold will be regionally grown and crafted in an effort to support local sustainability. Live music is always a part of the market from 11am-2pm. Here you will find organic produce, ready to eat foods, local, hand-made and wonderfully creative Kootenay products.
