About us
We are two brothers from Vermont that have struggled with mental health challenges and addiction for most of our lives. By connecting with nature, we came to realize disconnection was at the core of our problems.
​
We created Cultivating Connections to foster deeper connections in every aspect of our lives. A deeper connection with ourselves, our intuition, and our emotions. A deeper connection as brothers, as sons, as husbands, and as fathers. A deeper connection with nature and a deeper connection with the present moment.
​
We are passionate about community. We believe that we can heal ourselves and our community by creating meaningful connections.
Our hope with Cultivating Connections is that everyone in our community will be able to develop a supportive network of connections to empower them to be happy and fulfilled.
