Hands-on work, shared meals, and evening Circle foster connection across cultural boundaries. Nine Native host families, many of whom have worked with Deer Hill for decades, designed 13 projects in 2024 which are important to their community and create opportunities to share cultural arts, stories, and traditions with participants. Examples include building traditional stone bread ovens in a Hopi pueblo, chinking the log walls of a Navajo hogan, tending sheep and mending fences on a multi-generational family farm, or whitewashing the homes facing the central plaza in preparation for summer Kachina dances in some of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the United States. 166 participants for 2024.
