THE FOREST SANCTUARY

Outdoor Gatherings, Bonfires & Personal Retreats 
Ceremonies & Vision Quests in Nature
Outside Amherst, Massachusetts

The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.

John Muir

Welcome

to this sweet old farm in the hills of Western Massachusetts, the traditional lands of the Pocumtuck First Nations people. As stewards of this special place, we serve by hosting personal retreats, vision quests, life passage ceremonies, corporate off-sites. Welcome home!

 

Enjoy

self-guided rituals or retreats–or, catalyze your journey with Adam in a customized program of your choice, with 1-on-1 I Ching and life coaching sessions, Bhakti practice, and prayer ceremonies.

 

Relax & Renew

Refresh your spirit. Hike in the forest, explore, slow down. Sauna and splash in our spring-fed pond. Rediscover your natural rhythms in quiet contemplation amidst Nature’s cathedral.

Overnighting

There are no indoor accommodations on site at this time. Camp here in the forest, or stay at a local hotel or Airbnb.

Explore

our wonderful extended neighborhood. Visit America’s first Peace Pagoda, hike the Rattlesnake Gutter Conservation Area or Mt. Toby Reservation. Read “books you don’t need at a place you can’t find” at the famous Montague Book Mill and art complex and the Lady Killigrew Café and Watershed Restaurant. And so much more…
