Our VisionThe modern yearning to connect is not going away; rather its becoming increasingly apparent to Jews everywhere. To heed this call, our vision is to build a thriving Bay Area center for earth-based Judaism that reconnects our community to nature all year round, providing a hub for our community programs, a permaculture village, and a training ground to bring Wilderness Torah programs across the Jewish world.
