*Stay up to date with Earthlands & UofWild events with our Google Calendar
The calendar shows the Program/Retreat Center events and which specific spaces are reserved. Weekday availability is shown unmarked.
- The Lodge is generally rented by groups (sleeps up to 35), with the optional use of the large fields (with medicine circle, labyrinth, gardens, panaramic skyview), camp grounds, fire pit and temporary tents.
- The Cottage is tucked away in the woods, it sleeps up to 4 and has a day use that is comfortable up to 12. The Cottage may be rented along with nearby larger yurts for larger overnights.
- Other smaller personal yurts/cabins include the Fabric yurt, the Wooden Green yurt, The Orchard Cabin and there is also the option of sleeping at the lodge and camping if the lodge is not rented.
Please contact us for more information on reserving the Lodge or the Cottage (available year round, see link), or smaller spaces for more personal retreats.
At the moment we are only booking events through early September 2012, for when the University of the Wild's Semester on Earth begins, an alternative college program based on many years of work surrounding the mission of Earthlands and all its activities (more information TBA soon).
