Connecting Humans & Nature to promote Stewardship and Healing
Founded by herbalist Rosemary Gladstar and family in 1987, Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary is one of New England’s foremost conservation education centers. Located on 600 acres within nearly 80,000 acres of contiguous wilderness on unceded Abenaki territory in central Vermont, this land has provided a sanctuary for over thirty years to plants, animals, and people. We invite you to learn more about Sage Mountain, the classes we offer, and to become involved in our programs and initiatives.
As we continue our mission of conservation, education and healing, we invite your one-time or sustaining monthly contribution to ensure that Sage Mountain enters the new year in full recovery from this past summer’s challenges to remain a critical advocate for plants, wildlife, and the healing our human and ecological communities – next year and into the next thirty years, carrying forth the legacy of Rosemary Gladstar.
In 2025, we will host educational retreats, continue providing meaningful online education, host private retreats and group events, pursue our ongoing advocacy and conservation work, and continue to support the youth of our community through our Afterschool and Summer Camp programs.
We can only continue this work with your support!
Help us reach our 2024 Campaign Goal and close our the year strong and resilient.
