This 5-part miniseries tells the story of Cultivate, a 5-day retreat at a farm, where a group of young adults gathered to rest and wrestle with questions of faith, work, and loss.

When did you finally grow up? Was it a linear process? A chaotic one? Some of both?
For many of us, wrestling through our 20s and 30s with the reality of adulthood has produced more questions than answers. Those questions of work, faith, loss, and relationship (with God, with fellow humans, with the world around us) have emerged in knots and tangles. Often, there’s no safe place in which to try to make sense of them.
So we imagined: What might that place look like? How could we create a space in which we could address these questions in an integrated and holistic way? And what if we did so in conversation with the land, the soil, and the table?

Phenomenal Questions
I found myself literally pausing the podcast to write down the questions that were asked and then considering my own answers regarding work, faith, and relationships. Phenomenal.
A new way of thinking about what’s meaningful
This podcast does an incredible job of bringing us along on a transformative week of community, food, and growth. At least once an episode, I found myself pausing the podcast to reflect on the questions being explored—and I think they’re relevant to each of us. I loved hearing the sound of crickets and sharing in these conversations under the stars.
Thoughtful and thought-provoking
These friends offer some deep musings on the particular challenges and opportunities facing their generation—in a conversational format that is both engaging, and kind of endearing. You can tell that they like being together! It feels like a privilege to listen in on their conversations.
