BIRCH AND BRAWN PRESENTS:

ESCAPE NEW YORK RETREAT

This retreat is designed for YOU — a special and important person in our lives. We’ve created this experience around two guiding principles:

  1. Community
    Reuniting and strengthening the close-knit circle we've built over the past two decades in New York City and beyond.

  2. Wellness
    Offering our community a 5-day opportunity to reset and reconnect through foundational health practices — detoxing from the overwhelming pace of urban life and returning to a more natural, aligned rhythm to restore true well-being.

PRIVATE. PERSONAL. INTENTIONAL.

This retreat is 100% private and by invitation only. Everything will be curated for you and your guests. If you'd like to bring a young child, infant, or pet, please let us know — we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.

LIMITED AVAILABILITY

  • A private suite with ensuite bath
