SURPRISE FARM RETREAT CENTER

Surprise Farm Retreat Center (SFRC) is an educational organization offering workshops, seminars, and discussion groups on the relationships between nature, culture, community, self, and well-being.

​

With educators from the Center, and in collaboration with others, we seek to provide meaningful and effective service to individuals and society. Programs (activities, workshops and events) provide experiential education with the following attributes:

​

• The physical surround will provide entrance for philosophical ideas and meaning-making regarding our current existence in place.

• An educational structure will provide service for people of all backgrounds and interests,

  • to explore our place in nature, discuss our backgrounds, relationship and ideas; and

  • to co-create activities, art, rituals and healing in a community of common values and experiences.

• While offering our workshops, we will keep the idea of sustainable experience design in mind. We strive to co-create sustainable (environmental, social and economic) experiences that have lasting positive impact on individual and social well-being (Sustainable Community Development).
