immediate financial needs

Our most immediate needs are to provide both the necessary facilities and land base that will enable requesting educational institutions, community organizations and cultural groups the basic accommodations necessary to allow comfortable participation of their students and members. See the Site Plan below for a visual of Tara's Meadow current and proposed facilities.

Land Purchase Campaign: Tara's Meadow needs to plant its additional sleeping quarters and permanent infrastructure on a land base that is collaboratively owned and managed by the full 501.c3 Tara's Meadow Education and Retreat Center nonprofit organization. We cannot install any further permanent infrastructure on land that is privately owned and only rented by us, as is the current situation:
