ABOUT US

Susan -- Wild Onion

We specialize in smaller gatherings, to interesting places, with fabulous teachers. Our retreats are designed to foster friendship and fun, so we don’t overload our guests with classes, and because we cap our attendance at 25 guests, there is ample opportunity to get to know the designer and the other guests. 

We often hear “you’re more expensive than other retreats, but it was worth every penny!” and we agree.  The care we take in overseeing every aspect of our retreats is evident:  from our chosen hotels, to the placement of our cruise cabins, to the classes and projects (and side-quests) we provide!

With over 30 years of experience leading trips, teaching classes, and having fun, we can’t wait to welcome you to one of our unique retreats!
