This sounds interesting, although I won't be able to attend this year. What is the Sisters of the Ferns community like? Is it similar to Ovarit?

Hi! It’s nice to meet you :) I am one of the board members.

Sisters of the Ferns is a female-centered, earth-based, feminist religious organization formed by and for natal female individuals (herein referred to as “womyn and girls”) to create and sustain womyn’s culture.

Sisters of the Ferns recognizes both the biological and cultural basis of femaleness and its importance in shaping our lives.

Sisters of the Ferns exists to promote the well-being and conscious evolution of womyn and girl children of all nationalities and ancestry through education, gatherings, and celebration.

To become a member of Sisters of the Ferns or to attend events sponsored by Sisters of the Ferns, you must be a natal female who supports our mission and the following precepts:

  1. We endeavor to revive and embody matrifocal cultural structures for the benefit of all living beings and the Earth.

  2. We recognize and promote the sovereignty of womyn and girls.

  3. We recognize and promote the right of womyn and girls to gather for their own purposes.

  4. We endeavor to create sustainable places for womyn and girls to exchange ideas and support one another.

  5. We celebrate a culture of diversity, interdependence, resilience, empowerment, play, and pleasure.

  6. We believe in the inherent dignity of all living beings.

  7. We work to unlearn patriarchal values and practices.

Sisters of the Ferns continues the tradition of womyn’s cultural gatherings founded by our foremothers, and endeavors to continue this legacy for our daughters and granddaughters.
