A Place For Community, Connection, and Self-Discovery
Soul Song is where you will discover, or uncover, your dreams while establishing friendships (your village) with like-minded people who hold your dreams with you and support your personal journey.

Bring Soul Song To Life With Me!
Soul Song is a place to find your joy and understand that happy is a choice not controlled by outside events, actions or people. We only need to find our own Truth and Dreams that live within our beings buried under everyone else’s truths and stories. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature in the Southern Oregon countryside, with nearby running water year-round and abundant wildlife, guests will connect with other like-minded folks while participating in the life-affirming and joy-expanding Soul Song offerings.
Soul Song is a vision I am bringing to life. Interested in joining me?
The Heart Of Soul Song
New Relationships with Food and Nature
Soul Song comes from a deep belief we are all stewards of this earth, guests in fact. We teach how to create healthy soil that is alive and in turn produces food that provides real nourishment and tastes good. Learn how to enrich the soil, clean our air and water while enjoying healthy hands in the dirt experiences.
The Teaching Kitchen
The heart of Soul Song is our teaching kitchen, organic gardens and orchard. Soul Song staff are here to provide our guests with guidance and education through hands-on inspiring and fun experiences in our kitchen and gardens. We encourage our guests to come learn and teach each other, along with a professional chef, how to plan and prepare healthy, whole food meals that taste great.
Other Features of Soul Song
Accommodations
Soul Song will feature private rooms and spaces designed for the comfort and enjoyment of guests. Accommodations for individuals, couples, families with children, and groups include a private sleeping space, bathroom, and sitting area. Plans include porches for quiet contemplation outside surrounded by nature. Separate section for guests with pets is a major consideration. Staff / partners will be housed on site in a separate location.
Fitness Activities
Guests can enjoy fitness activities outdoors with community as well as an indoor fitness center.
