Hawaii Abbundance Oasis · Mini Burn · 16–24 September 2026
Homestead jungle, volcano weather, ocean close. Same spirit as a Burning Man theme camp — Refugee Camp energy: you bring a tent and a self-reliance kit. We run shade, kitchen, water, and fire. Not a hotel. Not a guest list.
What to expect
16–24 September 2026. Main ceremony day is 20 September. Sleep in your own tent under a triangle of tarps hung in the ʻōhiʻa. Rain is normal. Mud is normal.
Area 1 homestead camp: ferns, uluhe mulch, bees, mud, a live center tree. Pads keep tent floors off the sharp mulch. Street address is not on this page.
Closer to Refugee Camp than to a vacation rental. Communal shade. Kitchen shifts. MOOP. Fire discipline. Help if you have hands.
Not a booking site. Not an RSVP list. Not a resort. If you need hotel energy, this week is the wrong week.
The island
ʻŌhiʻa, uluhe, steam in the canopy. This is homestead jungle, not a resort lawn.
Who brings what
The tree
The living center tree is the village pole. Tents sit on pads around it, under the triangle tarps. This picture is a design vision of an octagon deck / hang — not a photograph of the land today. Early hands may help build it. Do not nail or cut the tree.
Your tent
Sleep in your own tent. Rain is normal. A warm light and a dry bag go a long way.
Pads
Cinder and plywood so the mulch does not punch the tent floor. This is the pad, not a hotel platform.
What to pack
If you would not take it to Refugee Camp, think twice — then add an umbrella.
Leave glitter, feathers, and anything that becomes MOOP. Leave hotel expectations. Bring a yes for rain.
Fire circle
Stone circle, sparks, dishes done first. Fire stays tended. Quiet hours are human, not hotel.
How camp life works
Shared kitchen and restroom. Wash what you use. Label food. Ask before you raid a stash.
Wood stays in the ring. Someone tends it. Read the room after midnight.
Pack it in, pack it out. Early hands help cut weeds and hang ropes. Last days we leave Area 1 cleaner than we found it.
Ceremony and tea are opt-in. Photo people only if they want to be in the picture.
Tea
A Japanese iron kettle (chagama) on a brazier, and a matcha set: chawan, chasen, chashaku. Water from camp, not the pond. Whisk, drink, wash. Same spirit as the kitchen — shared, tended, opt-in. Bring a cup if you have one. No names on who is pouring.
How tea works here
Cast-iron chagama heats water on a brazier. Matcha is whisked in a bowl. Treat the iron and the bowls as you would camp cookware you love.
Sit if you are invited by the moment. Leave if you need to. Wash what you use. Do not put pond water in the kettle.
The pond
A natural pond in the lava rock. It fills with rain. Guppies live here and eat mosquito larvae. No soap. Not drinking water. Watch more than you splash. We stage potable water at camp.
Guppies
The fish belong to the pond. Look. Do not scoop a souvenir.
Still water
Plants, reflection, no swimming-pool energy.
Camp map
Three ʻōhiʻa hold a tarp triangle (about a 50-foot base on the drawing). Tents go on pads under the shade. Drawings are design intent; we measure on land before we buy fabric.
Volcano
Glow, vog, and a sky that turns in ten minutes. Pack for wet and night.
Days on the land
Disc golf. Punching bag. Yoga / ceremony / tea. Kitchen and hang. Main ceremony day is 20 September. Nothing is mandatory except fire safety and MOOP.
Volcano. Ocean hot springs. Hilo Richardson Beach. Water shoes. No specific pool or trail is promised on this page.
Ocean hot springs
A day-trip mood. Water shoes. No named pool promised — weather and access decide.
Same coast, another day
Pack out what you bring. Read the signs. Leave it cleaner than you found it.
Ocean day
Richardson-style coast energy. Optional. Pack a towel and a dry bag.
Night
If the clouds open, look up. Headlamp on red if you have it.
Dusk
The flyer above is vision. This is the land at last light.
Bees
Give the hive space. Uluhe and hāpuʻu are the floor of camp.
