About Us

Founded by Gwendolyn Endicott and continued by her daughter Carolyn Greenwood, The Magic Rainforest (also known as Wanderland) is a forest sanctuary dedicated to promoting healing through nature. 

"This was a truly magical and transformative experience. Carolyn was deeply kind and supportive as my husband and I explored and created our ceremonies. It’s hard to describe how special this day was for me and for us."

Gwendolyn Endicott

Wanderland Rainforest is a place that its founder Gwendolyn Endicott called home for 33 years. Today, all programs facilitated in the forest are dedicated to her vision.

  

Gwendolyn, a mythologist and storyteller, believed in nature's healing power. She often said, “The forest is the teacher and I am its storyteller.”


Within her forest sanctuary she brought life to the magic of her gifts. As a teacher, writer, and environmental activist she was well regarded and loved within her community. Throughout her life at Wanderland, she wrote three books:


  • The Spinning Wheel
  • Crone Trekking in Coyote Land
  • Tales of Wanderland

Gwendolyn's Legacy

When Gwendolyn passed in 2022, her legacy was kept alive and Wanderland was placed in a family trust. 

  

Her final words to her family emphasized continuing to protect and share the land. She said, "you will help it grow, change, and become a beacon of healing and light in the rainforest."


Today, Wanderland stands as a testament to Gwendolyn's legacy. Nestled amidst towering trees and meandering streams, it is a haven for those seeking solace, inspiration, and connection with nature. Visitors can experience the magic of the forest by registering for one our class on the Offerings page.
