The mission of Earth Sanctuary is to create a sacred space that restores and protects the natural habitat and provides an inspiring place for personal renewal and spiritual growth. A 500-year plan is in place to restore Earth Sanctuary to mature old-growth forest with maximum diversity of birds, wildlife and plants. Spiritually inspired eco-art creates an environment for people to experience peacefulness, mindfulness and be inspired to pray and meditate.
Plan your spiritual getaway at the Earth Sanctuary Retreat Center. This retreat center is a place for 1-6 people to stay overnight for personal renewal, relaxation, retreat, meditation, and peaceful reflection. Located adjacent to the 72-acre Earth Sanctuary meditation parkland and nature reserve, your stay includes access to the trails, stone circles, labyrinth, stupa, medicine wheels, and dolmen.
