About our Festivals
Spirit of the Earth Church hosts a trio of three-day Festivals per year. Our festivals include a variety of workshops, weekend intensives, guest speakers, Rituals, merchants, music, merriment, community, and more! We focus on a specific thoughtform for each festival season; each festival itself is a stepping stone transitioning into the next.
Facilities:
Our festivals take place at Spring Ledge Farms a beautiful 200 acre private farm in Western Kentucky. Festivals are tent camping or RV only, there are no cabins. Port-a-toilets, outdoor shower, and sink are provided. Our site has full kitchen facilities and wireless internet access.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks, and snacks are provided during the entire event and are prepared on site. We do ask that each participant bring a potluck dish as part of our community potluck dinner. If you have any food allergies please let us know upon registration.
