Come early for Wintering Well: Heal // Wellness, Rest and Healing: Lessons from the Northwoods panel discussion led by Rebeka Ndosi of Maji ya Chai Land Sanctuary inside Malcolm Yards and stay for a community-centered sauna experience. Visitors can flow between The Great Northern Sauna Village’s 22 saunas and try aromatherapy steam hosted by Rebeka Ndosi. 

Before, during, or after the sessions, attendees are invited to relax fireside in the Room & Board vignettes under ambient lights to enjoy time with companions, or slide up to the We Are Water MN’s Water Bar to rehydrate and reconnect with our most precious resource and the relationships—both natural and human—it sustains. Malcolm Yards will be open just feet away to serve you a specialty Great Northern cocktail or another festive libation or fare.

Please note: Sauna participants must be 13+ years of age at the time of their sauna experience during. Attendees under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Parents are welcome to bring children ages 5-13 during our Family Day Steam Sessions programming on Sunday mornings. 

How to prepare: Bring easy-to-slip-on/off sandals or flip-flops, a towel, a robe to wear to and from the saunas, and a water bottle to stay hydrated. Bathing suits are required, and we recommend coming already dressed to maximize sauna time. Please note that Malcolm Yards requires shoes and either a robe or clothes to be worn indoors.
