Just like an aspen grove, God planted each of us as an individual tree in a unique time and place to be the man He designed. But under the surface, just like an aspen grove, we are connected by a strong root system, supporting and encouraging one another as a collective of men. In the Grove, you are a man among men.
The Restoration Grove is a grassroots movement of men across the country who have come to know there's something more, something deeper, and something far more necessary. There's a space God is calling his men to fill that is neither toxic masculinity nor masculine abdication. It's a space where men are connected, storied, brothered, fathered, and bring the fullness of God's glory in them to the world.
You are invited to participate in a growing collective of men who will not settle, but instead choose to pursue their own hearts and stories while they pursue other men. Over the last decade, God has grown a community of guys who rally together to live this life how it was meant to be lived. Once a year this community gathers to connect, grow, dive in, have some man-fun, get trained, and launch back into their own spheres as changed men. Equipped with tools and a team, men of Grove can bring restoration to their worlds. These are men who intentionally heal their wounds, know God, and restore their world.
We Invite You To Join Us
You may have been coming to the Grove Retreat for years, or this may be your first time. We would love for you to join us this fall for this unique experience. Men who participate in Restoration Grove are part of a nationwide movement of men. You're invited behind the curtain of Restoration Project at this event. While there is no expectation, we invite the men of Grove to then advocate for the work and ministry of Restoration Project.
Our hope at Restoration Project is to further a grassroots movement of restorative men across the country. To further that aim, we want you to invite others to the Grove Retreat. In thinking about who to invite, simply consider these questions:
If the answer to those questions is yes. by all means invite him!

We're excited to be at a wonderful retreat center outside Buena Vista (approximately two and a half hours from the Denver Airport). This location is at high altitude, and is nestled in the beautiful Colorado mountains. Plan on being off the grid your entire stay. Specific instructions will be sent over the month prior to the retreat.
You're on your own to coordinate transportation to and from the retreat center. We'll share contact information if you'd like to carpool. For those flying out, make sure your departing flight is no earlier than 4:30 pm on October 4th.
Includes all meals from Thursday dinner through Sunday brunch, accommodations, all content, poker (you're on your own for buy-in though), man-fun activities and materials. That means...get there and we've got everything else covered. No need for sheets/towels unless you want your own sleeping bag. Be prepared for high-altitude. Oxygen is scarce.
You can pay full-price or reserve your spot with a $100 non-refundable deposit (remainder of your balance will be charged on 9/1/26). Scholarships may be available.
