Abstract:
The land Timberlake Farm Earth Sanctuary rests upon currently cannot be used for development, courtesy of a conservation easement in place since 2001. In continuing to set aside the land, visitors can still experience the sacred in its hiking trails, cabins, on-site chapel, and man-made lakes. As for Timberlake’s present owner, Carolyn Toben, the site has had this effect, providing comfort and consolation during a forty year span defined by professional gain and personal loss.
