Buck Creek Sanctuary

Connecting People and Nature 

Buck Creek Sanctuary is a serene 58 acre haven, nestled in the heart of Harrison County near Elizabeth Indiana. Surrounded by the beauty of nature, the sanctuary serves as a refuge for both wildlife and humans alike. Our mission is to cultivate a sacred space with a natural world and human spirit can reconnect, offering a peaceful environment for healing restoration and growth. 

We aim to educate youth and the general public about the natural world, the vulnerability of nature, the medicinal plants we need to survive and heal, and to re-engage children and adults in nature to both give them access to the healing space of the forest and the knowledge to use her gifts to heal themselves and the world around them.  People who come to Buck Creek Sanctuary experience deep healing by honoring the earth as being alive, and by realizing that we are a part of nature and not separate from it.

Buck Creek Sanctuary offers forest immersion experiences, foraging workshops, native plant education hikes and community-building events, so the gifts of the forest are available to all.  Your donation will allow us to expand our programming to reach more people.   

If you love nature; if you believe in the importance of saving our native and medicinal plants; if you believe in the healing power of nature; if you believe in community; then please support our mission by donating today.  We welcome your support, and we hope you will visit us soon!
