Earth Rising Sanctuary Earth rising sanctuary is located on a beautiful piece of property in northeast washington overlooking the Columbia River and mountains of Canada. Seminars and healing arts gatherings are regularly held on the property for those who desire to share and learn techniques in the self-healing arts for the individual and the Earth. We are looking for more members who are interested in growing both on the agricultural and personal levels. Artists and healers are also very welcome and our space can be affordably rented by anyone interested in holding a gathering of their own. Winter residence is available in the community building for $100 a month plus 12 hours work and a share of the expenses (primarily plowing and propane for cooking.) There is also the option of paying $200 which would cover expenses and no labor would be required. We are also looking for an earth conscious buyer to purchase the neighboring 20 acre property for $75,000. This land also has similar stunning views of the Columbia River and surrounding mountains. Our neighbor is being kind in giving the sanctuary a window of time to find the right person or group of people. This window may be short so if you are interested or know a person or community of people who may be interested, please contact as soon as possible. It is crucial for the future of Earth Rising Sanctuary that the buyer be respectful of conscious natural living, healing gatherings and seminars and respect for nature. If
