Ceremonial Cacao Beneath the Pines: A Hammock Meditation & Sound Healing Experience

Saturday, February 28th 5:30-7:30pm

Event Description

Join us for a deeply nourishing Cacao Ceremony designed to awaken the heart, calm the mind, and reconnect you with your inner truth. Held in our tranquil pine forest hammock sanctuary, this experience invites you to rest in a gently cradling hammock beneath towering pines, surrounded by the steady rhythms and spacious presence of the forest.

Guided by Darin and Lacey, who have spent over 13 years working intimately with the Spirit of Cacao, this ceremony offers a grounded, heart-centered space for healing and connection. Together, we will sit with Guatemalan Criollo Ceremonial Cacao, learning about its rich history, energetic benefits, and the sacred traditions that have carried this medicine through generations.

We’ll open with invocation, gratitude, and blessing, welcoming the presence and guidance of the Spirit of Cacao. Supported by the earth below and the canopy above, you’ll be guided through intention setting, meditation, and peace mantras—gently turning inward to explore the essence of your heart.

Resting comfortably in your hammock, you’ll be immersed in guided movement, song, live music, and a restorative sound healing journey. Darin and Lacey’s ceremonies gently support emotional release, energetic alignment, and heart-centered connection through ritual and sound. As the cacao opens your energetic pathways, you’re invited to soften emotional layers, access inner wisdom, and step more fully into your truth.

The ceremony closes with quiet integration time in the pine forest hammocks, allowing insights, clarity, and connection to settle naturally before returning.

Our goat herd loves browsing fresh pine — it’s one of their favorite enrichments of the year. Your donated tree becomes:

🌲 Goat Enrichment: a fun winter snack that encourages natural browsing behavior.
🌿 A Seasonal Treat: they enjoy the needles, the bark, and the novelty.
🔥 Farm Use: after the goats finish with it, we cut up the remaining trunk for firewood at the farm.

Drop your undecorated tree at the barn gate anytime:

Jaybird Hammock Farm Events are Weather Dependent:

Florida weather is unpredictable, and weather-related cancellations at Jaybird Hammock Farm are never made lightly. We consider on-site conditions like standing water and setup timing when making these decisions—not forecasts alone. We know cancellations can disrupt your travel, hotel, or childcare plans, just as they impact our small farm’s revenue. We’ve experienced guest frustration when the call is made too early and the weather clears, and also when it’s made last-minute. There’s no perfect moment—but we always do our best to make a thoughtful, safety-based decision. Once a cancellation is made, it is final. Reschedule or refunds will be offered. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
