Our mission is to cultivate a balance among nature, community and individuals. We offer an interdisciplinary wellness and retreat space for all ages to explore their innate creativity and reconnect with their authentic Self. Our space is for you to explore, play and to experience the joy of being. Our programming philosophy is based on the concept that there is no “one size fits all approach to wellness”.
