"When we see land as
a Community to which we belong,
we may begin to
use it with Love and Respect." --Aldo
Leopold
| The Sacred Earth Foundation is a non-profit, community-stewarded land trust. It is one of the few land conservancy groups that has formally identified its approach and values to be "spiritual" in nature, believing that the Earth is Sacred and deserves to be treated accordingly. The circle above reflects the values of the Foundation. After removing abandoned buildings and piles of trash that for years had spoiled the beauty and integrity of the land at the edge of Rock Creek Canyon, Ekone campers and staff built this medicine wheel with stones taken from the foundations of the old buildings and celebrated their restoration work with thankfulness. |
