Retreat in the Redwoods

Set in the beautiful redwoods near the Mendocino coast of California, DWeb Camp is a five-day retreat for builders and dreamers to connect, learn, share and have fun as we work towards building a better, decentralized web. A web that actualizes the principles of trust, human agency, mutual respect, and ecological awareness. 

Our goal is to create a safe space and a caring community, grounded in nature, where we can explore the hidden dynamics and consequences of technology. A place where we can build tools to solve real-world needs. Where everyone can find their personal flow – that unique way they can contribute to the world.

Grounded in nature

We've reserved a private camp 2.5 hours from San Francisco and 11 miles from the Mendocino Coast. Nestled among towering redwoods, with the Navarro River meandering through the property, this 80-acre site offers beautiful spots to hack, hold workshops, have small group discussions, meditate, and hike. A chance to reconnect with nature and each other.

You are invited to bring your own tent or RV, or you can rent a cabin or glamping tent from us. We’ll provide three healthy meals each day.  Come as a family! Children are woven into everything we do, with a special program created just for families.

Here's what to expect.
