OUR VENUE
LOST VALLEY EDUCATION CENTER
Lost Valley Education Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and intentional community land trust located in Dexter, Oregon. LVEC uses a permaculture approach of ecological design and restoration to steward 87 acres of Oak Savanna, woodlands, and mixed conifer forest ecosystems.
This sacred land is home to a camas meadow, meandering creek, streams, ponds, orchards, and permaculture gardens that are collectively stewarded. Since 1989, Lost Valley has been a place for experiential learning through holistic educational programs, community development, events and volunteer opportunities.
We gather on the traditional lands of the Winefelly band of the Kalapuya nation.
We acknowledge the history of forced removal and genocide at the hands of European colonizers, and recognize that these impacts continue today. We are committed to moving beyond acknowledgment into direct action and reparative relationships with Indigenous communities. We strive to honor this intention throughout the event and beyond.
