A transformative rural wellness experience
The true impact of the cod moratorium has never been fully realised. 1992 marked the end of a five hundred year old economy and began the process of a slow and painful death for Conche and many rural fishing communities across the province.
Our culture, rooted for five generations in the fishery, ultimately faced extinction.
Those born in this period of time, including myself, were the Moratorium Children. We were born into a new reality plagued by uncertainty and perfumed with a deep longing for a past that we were never a part of.
Early adulthood led me far and wide, travelling to many corners of the globe, realising that hope exists everywhere. The longing for my bleeding homeland became stronger than ever.
There is a certain magnetism that exists here in the quiet of the harbour. There is an allure to the weather beaten shores, the paint-chipped fishing stages, and the towering peninsula cliffs. Serenity and stillness surrounds this place, and each time I returned home, I felt a deeper connection to not only the land, but to myself, recognizing the power of Conche with each trip back.
The concept for Moratorium Children was derived by a desire to share the magic of Conche with the rest of the world and to effectively work towards economic resiliency and preservation of our culture and heritage.
Incorporating mindfulness meditation, forest therapy, musical performances, storytelling, and breathtaking peninsula and coastline hiking, Moratorium Children is a journey of reconnection: to your truest self, your spirit, and to the very soul of Newfoundland and Labrador.
You are invited to the Northern Peninsula this summer, to connect your mind, body, and spirit to the essence of Conche’s natural and cultural wonder.
