Turtle Lake Refuge

Our mission is to celebrate the connection between personal health and wild lands. 

We manifest this goal through promoting and practicing sustainable practices. Examples of our work include growing, harvesting and preparing local, wild and living food for the community, educating about the great values of the wild edible abundance available in our area, providing local microgreens for the public schools, restaurants and stores, biking or driving on alternative fuel when possible, utilizing solar dehydrators, bicycle powered blender and wheatgrass juicer and educating about organic land stewardship practices.

Please contact us directly through our official website or by phone: www.turtlelakerefuge.org or 970.247.8395
