TreeParty.com started as an informal mailing list to share creative, thought-provoking, socially impactful events we thought our friends would enjoy. More and more people wrote to us asking to be added to the list. It became clear that many people were interested in positive, socially conscious gatherings but did not have an organized way to find out about them. TreeParty.com is changing that. We are building a community of people who care about living joyful, simple lives that enrich our world in positive, sustainable ways.

While the online space allows us to more easily find each other, exchange ideas, and tap into resources, we see it as a starting place. We believe that the most impactful social change and the best fun happens in the real world when real people connect and share real experiences. At TreeParty.com, use our on-line forums to access our extensive listings which range from intimate gatherings to large festivals which celebrate friendship, creativity, fun and connectedness. By sharing these events, we hope to connect like-minded people who are committed to promoting the common good of our communities and living healthier, more sustainable and socially active lives. TreeParty.com is the place where you can:

• Learn about ways to promote renewal of the earth and how to live healthier lifestyles
• Discover resources that help you embrace the sacred, and cultivate spiritual growth
• Engage in dialogue and share information about the events you attend and businesses you support
• Participate more fully in the creation of a just and peaceful world, and a whole and healthful earth

TreeParty.com consists of interrelated parts to:

• Build community and connectedness through a socially conscious, awareness-raising calendar of events
• Empower people across all stages of life to mobilize their innate capacity for health and well being through access to relevant resources, services and information
• Create an interactive, on-line gathering place that supports word-of-mouth sharing and contributes to building community, both on- and off-line, amongst thoughtful, caring people
• Enhance this connectedness through technology by bringing real-time, virtual web-casting of events that tune in to select consciousness raising community gatherings
