Metta Earth Institute

Metta Earth Institute is a center for contemplative ecology and a homestead located on 158 acres of field, forest, farm, and pasture. We are a non-profit, educational retreat center integrating contemplative practice, deep ecology, regenerative food systems, and social activism to create resilient sustainable communities. Throughout the summer, we hold Ecological Leadership Intensives that integrate hands-on, experiential learning with a conceptual exploration of how to build healthy communities that are rooted in nature.
