The Manitou Project

The Manitou Land is a sanctuary on 235-acres of woodland in Newfane, Vermont.

Manitou means, "it is sacred".

Transformational journeys are initiated here, as people awaken to a deeper understanding of themselves in relation to the Earth. The Manitou Project celebrates the sacred interdependence of humans and nature. It is a model of land conservation and education integrating spiritual and practical applications of ecological awareness. We offer a healing sanctuary to affirm and celebrate this interdependence in our own lives and in the greater community.
