Our Vision
MorningSun is a forming education center and resident staff community founded on the practice of mindful living and sustainability.
MorningSun's intention is to create an environment in which residents and guests develop the practice of mindfulness and sustainable living to address the needs of society and the world.

Resident staff of the community will gather to practice mindfulness in order to maintain a harmonious and stable environment to support each other and the guests of the center.

Retreat programs for guests of all ages will offer experiential education and training in mindfulness, sustainability, and the development of a life of service.

The farm will grow food for the center and resident community using organic/biodynamic methods and will develop a small animal sanctuary to practice reverential relations with animals.

The built environment will demonstrate ecological sustainability in design and construction including the use of sustainable energy and waste management systems.

The rural community setting with its preserved forest lands will provide the opportunity for guests to slow down, breathe deeply, and be refreshed by nature and the joy of simple living.

As education center, spiritual community, and farm MorningSun will be an easily accessible demonstration of mature and sustainable practices that renew culture and society.

The Long-Term Plan
Over time MorningSun hopes to develop its programs for children, youth, and families into a mindfulness-based school and 'children's village' for orphan children, a youth and family support center, and an elder care facility.
