A natural sanctuary nestled on 95 wooded acres of sacred space.
The Light Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit retreat center and an organic permaculture farm, supporting regenerative land stewardship, community resilience, and human connection.
The Light Center is a beacon lighting the way into a vibrant future.
Harmonizing with the earth, inspiring personal, local and global connection. Providing safe space for spiritual growth and healing, and empowering youth.
We are dedicated to living, learning and growing in partnership with Nature as we adapt to a rapidly changing world. For twenty years, it has offered a wide range of small group intensive retreats and workshops, focusing on a variety of ways for spiritual healing and self-development. Our programs are held in a 125 year old converted barn located just west of Baldwin City, Kansas featuring many interwoven projects. We act as an educational permaculture based farm and learning center. The Light Center is a nonprofit Alternative Unity Ministry with 501(c)(3) privileges under the umbrella of Unity Worldwide Ministries.
We serve our community through healing retreats, grief and addiction support, youth programming, and community gatherings.
Join us for one of our many family festivals and camps, communal potlucks and movie screenings, private yoga practice and meditation, or enjoy the meditative experience of nature.
If you’re interested in hosting an event with us or would like a tour of the property, please contact us.
