The world needs Dreaming Stone! Indeed, we are becoming a learning and cultural center that is both a vibrant local partner and a center for the integration of holistic landcare, community care and self care. We need 50 new monthly donors to sign on this season, to meet our annual fund goals.
Set up recurring donations and join our community of support!

Update from “the community at Dreaming Stone”
… still working on a name.

Jason MagLaughlin has landed! He is a long time friend, international organizer for peace and committed volunteer- serving as Chair of the Board of DSAEC. He is trying on life in Rutherford County and already the garden is showing her approval. Also, the lovely and loving Emily Perkins, Raiki master and life coach, is in the process of moving here. Our growing numbers are exciting! Our beloved community members, Leonardo and Romina (and baby Leon) are presently in Italy, jumping bureaucratic hoops & hurdles so as to raise their family amidst our family. Please hold them in prayer, alongside our whole community.
None of this is easy. Amidst our privilege, these times are terrifying. We cannot pray away the trouble, outsmart the trouble, OR be ready for the trouble. And we cannot deny the reality that every one is struggling. The best we can be is wounded healers, but at least we are seeking healing.
Be tender towards yourself, and generous toward others. We must build each other up!
