I attuned to Cullerne as my Experience Week work department without knowing what the name stood for. Four mornings over twenty years ago – how could such a short time have had such a powerful impact?

A moving tribute to Fred Barton, a legendary Findhorn gardener. His second wife, Lynn, reflects on their years together, his deep connection to nature, and his legacy of love in action.

In the beginning was the garden, and the garden continues, but the forms that express this spirit are today far different from those of nineteen years ago.

Now that I have accepted the role of focaliser at Cullerne for the next wee while, I must begin to look for the creative purpose of its being. Mine is a process of attunement to the earth, of quiet meditations in our rock garden, of listening and looking.

In this video Dræyk Hørn shares with us a walk through Cullerne Garden at the Findhorn Foundation in September 2020.

Editor’s Note: The following document is the prospectus for Project Cullerne written in September 1982. We offer it both as facsimile in form of a flipbook and as text below. Project Cullerne was also described

After four years of hard work and in recognition of a wider role and larger purpose, the Findhorn Founda­tion Garden School was rechristened Project Cullerne this past October.

The first time I remember Cullerne was during my Experience Week in 1979. A tour of Cullerne was included in that week, and I was deeply impressed. I joined the Cullerne Garden School and later co-focalised the garden.

An invitation to invest in the role of Cullerne House in our next educational journey: as a Centre of Light, Love, Transformation and Hope that the world so desperately needs.

As I look out the window at the Park garden, the trees are bending with the gale-force gusts of wind, and rain is pelting down. How often we view our environment as though framed by the weather, and how often people have viewed Findhorn as though framed by the garden.
