MIDDLEBURG, VA FALL HARVEST FARM RETREAT

Fall Harvest Farm Retreat
October 13-18th, 2026
Location: Middleburg, VA

There is a kind of pilgrimage that belongs to this time of year. Not one marked by distance, but by a turning. The movement is subtle and unmistakable. What once reached outward begins to draw back. What has been growing asks to be gathered, sorted, taken in.

Women have always known this rhythm, even if it has been quieted. The harvest is not only of the fields, but of a life. What has come to fruition, what has been given energy, what now asks to be kept, and what is ready to be released without negotiation. There is a sobriety to it, but also a deep rightness. A sense that something is completing itself.

We gather on a farm where this is lived rather than spoken about. The land does not rush the process. It holds what is ready and lets go of what is not. In that environment, something in you begins to do the same. The body softens its grip where it has been holding too tightly. Attention shifts toward what is essential.

The work meets you there. Through breath, through the quiet precision of acupuncture, through movement that restores rather than performs, through ritual that marks what is ending and what is being carried forward. Nothing is added for effect. What emerges comes from direct contact with your own experience.

This retreat is for women who can feel the pull of this season and do not want to override it. Women who sense there is something to gather from their lives right now, something to claim, something to lay down. Women who are ready to walk themselves back into alignment with their own timing, and to do that in the presence of others who are also willing to see clearly.

It is not a dramatic crossing. It is a steady return. And for many, it is exactly what has been missing. We hope you will join us on this very special Farm FADEN experience.

  • “It’s true “no words” to describe (this experience) but I know that I am one of the lucky ones on this planet who was blessed to be a part of a magical and powerful weekend.

    Lindsay, you are so special and you are truly a medicine woman. I can’t wait for others to experience the magic and tap into their inner selves!

    Alli, Stacia and Sofie you are also magic and thank you for your love!”

  • “A retreat with Faden is a life changing opportunity. Not only was every detail of the retreat so perfectly thought out, from the absolutely stunning location, to the delicious, healthy meals, to each little element of the experience, but the Faden team, led by Lindsay Olshan, is the most welcoming, trustworthy and knowledgeable teachers I've ever come across. Lindsay has created an experience that feels like the warmest hug, from the second you walk through the door. And as the time passes, she helps you connect with your inner spirit and inner knowings with such ease, in the most beautiful, profound way. Lindsay also creates an opportunity for all the guests sharing space to connect with each other, authentically and naturally, and I left the weekend with new deep friendships that will certainly last a lifetime. It's hard to put into words how special a retreat with Faden is, but once you experience it you will understand there are not many experiences that compare.”

    Corina D. - Entrepreneur

  • “Faden retreat was just what I needed as I sat in the middle of a big life decision - what to do next for my career. I was in between jobs and wanted to have quiet time to reflect on this next stage of my life. The psychedelic journey, breath work, yoga, and healthy (and delicious) food helped me re-connect to myself and gave me a place to come back to when needed in daily life. It was my first time doing a journey and I was a little nervous. Lindsay and team created such a nurturing and safe environment I felt completely at ease. Unexpected by product of the retreat - met some new lovely friends!”

    L.K. - VP Marketing

  • “A life-changing experience of epic proportions.

    My Baja journey with Faden turned out to be an epic, life-changing experience, in a myriad of exceedingly positive ways.

    Rendering me, forever and always, wonderfully changed. I search for words to explain in more detail to help others understand the benefits of the multi-faceted, lovingly curated retreat.

    Alas, some experiences defy description. Suffice to say, I hope you too will be drawn to explore the possibilities of living more deeply, and truly within your best self, and if so, you can’t do better than treating yourself to Faden’s many offerings of healing and growth.

    Live well!”

    F.D. - Marketing Director
