Grailville
 Don’t
miss a stop at Grailville, which is an Education and Retreat Center located
on 300 beautiful acres just to the East of Loveland. Drive up the
hill and you will enjoy a Grailville style intermingling of gardens, piglets,
labyrinths, constructed wetlands, and nature trails. For the
person with an appreciation for farming, gardening and the natural world
Grailville has plenty for you enjoy.
Grailville will be featuring four points of interest, and will have
volunteers stationed in each area.
The CSA Gardens – Earth Shares Community Supported Agriculture is located
at Grailville. Earth Shares CSA farms five acres of Grailville’s organically
certified fields to provide delicious organic produce to the CSA members.
Pigs – Grailville and Local Farmer Pat Hill are in year number two of
a partnership to produce Pat’s Pastured Pork. Sustainable farming
methods are healthy for the land, the pigs and for us!
Constructed Wetlands and Rain Gardens – Grailville has a unique, sustainable,
state of the art wastewater treatment system. Waste water from 5
of our buildings is treated on site in our Constructed Wetlands.
While touring this system you will find an abundance of native plant species.
The Labyrinth - A labyrinth is a single path that leads to the center
of a spiraling or regularly swirling pattern. It has re-emerged as a spiritual
tool for creating sacred space. We invite you to take some time to experience
this ancient, yet new for many, prayer and meditation tool.
