Sacred Land EarthSpirit Community Open Houses

EarthSpirit welcomes you to monthly open house events at its center in the hilltowns of western Massachusetts

A tour of the land includes sacred sites such as a standing stone circle, a labyrinth and a peace cairn and concludes with programs appropriate to the season.

The open houses run from 1:00 PM to 4:30 PM one Sunday each month from May to October. For more information and directions e-mail openhouse@earthspirit.com or call 413-238-4240.

The program will change each month, please see the schedule below.

Guidelines for Visitors:

• Please notice the private homes in the middle of the land, and respect the privacy of residents.
• There are portable facilities available for visitors.
• Do not bring any alcohol or drugs, and leave pets, including dogs, at home.
• Dress for being outdoors, including good shoes/boots for walking in the woods.
• We prefer to maintain a cigarette smoke-free environment, but if you need to smoke, please do so outdoors away from the buildings and field-strip your butts.
• Please use no candles or incense, because of risk of fire.
• Please park parallel to the road on the right as you drive in.
