A grove is a term which denotes not only a woodland temple but also a group of Druids, and the meetings they hold. Like sacred forest groves they are designed to create a powerful and peaceful atmosphere.
Groves can be made up of just a few members, or may number thirty or more. Some groves may welcome non-members to some of their gatherings. Each Grove is different, with each one offering additional services and ceremonies to its members and local community. These might range from rites of passage, to initiations, camps, workshops and community projects.
There are groves in Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England, and in Europe, the USA and Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Members receive access to a full Directory in The Druid Hearth of all Seed Groups and Groves when they join.

Learn more about Druidry and how to join the order
The practice of Druidry used to be confined to those who could learn from a Druid in person. But now you can take an experience-based course wherever you live, and when you enrol on this course, you join the Order of Bards, Ovates & Druids, and begin an adventure that thousands of people all over the world have taken. It works with the ideas and practices of Druidry in a thoroughly practical, yet also deeply spiritual way.
