The Light Center

The Light Center is a 95 acre natural sanctuary nestled in a wooded creek valley amidst the farm land of Kansas. 

• We have a refinished community barn with two private rooms and a community kitchen, a 30ft Pacific Yurt and lots of great places to camp. 

• If you're just driving through or want an 'easy' camping experience with wifi, pitch your tent in the spacious yard around the barn. 

• We have lots of places to hike to and several wonderful remote camping spots. Choose from hiking out to camp near the large creek that winds through our land, gathering with friends in a meadow or tucking into a spot in the woods with a beautiful view of the Kansas plains. 

• Out here, on a clear night, you can see all of the stars.

We are an organic, sustainable farm providing natural sacred spaces for hiking and camping.  We welcome peaceful camping for people with reverence for the land and all beings. We have goats, free-range chickens, guinea hens, dogs and cats. For the safety of our livestock and other guests, we do require visitors to keep their dogs on a leash at all times. 

The Light Center is a retreat center serving as a beacon, lighting the way into a vibrant future. We are creating new paths with open hearts. We offer events, celebrations and ceremonies about harmonizing with the earth and inspiring personal, local and global connections. We provide a safe space to nurture and inspire spiritual growth and empower youth.

Our 30 ft. diameter Pacific Yurt nestled in the woods can accommodate several campers! The easiest camping you will ever experience!

There is a creek near by that allows for some nature walks or a place for your dogs to splash.
