THE HEARTH INSTITUTE: DREAM WITH PURPOSE
Bree's Non Profit and Retreat Center
The Hearth Institute is a collective of leaders (scientists, philosophers, educators, artists, and entrepreneurs) who believe that it’s time to do new things in new ways.
We are brand new 501(c)(3) and will have our official launch in fall 2025. We will offer courses, workshops, and retreats to help individuals and communities navigate personal and organizational transformation in these epic times.
Anytime you buy Bree's books, attend her workshops, or have her speak at your event, a portion of the proceeds help build and tend the Hearth.
Here's a look at what we already have and how you can help us grow...
Eighty acres of awe-inspiring land outside of Taos, NM
The Hearth is directly adjacent to the Rio Grande National Monument. Step into miles of sage and piñon pine and commune with desert lizards, big horn sheep, golden eagles, and expansive sky. A short stroll on our nature trail brings you to the rim of the Rio Grande.
An extraordinary state-of-the-art telescope observatory
Located in true Dark Sky country, we have a professional, university-caliber telescope observatory. We’re over the moon about offering folks the opportunity to interact with the cosmos through astronomy and astrophotography.
A one-of-a-kind, off-grid retreat house
Our headquarters boasts solar for power, rain-catchment for water, passive solar for heat, and all the other green-building goodies. This is command center for our voyage and launch point for our new community center.
Groundbreaking community center
We are breaking ground on a new teaching and retreat space, which will offer endless possibilities to bring people together to learn about earth, river, and sky. We'd love to host you for an event on our land. Help us get there!
A visionary and passionate team
Our team has decades of experience innovating in community building and education. We have an incredible circle of scientists, philosophers, educators, entrepreneurs, artists, writers, and green-builders dedicated to a shared vision of teaching and learning at the Hearth. We're in it for the long haul and excited for
