Our Mission

The Hostel in the Forest, located in Brunswick, Georgia, USA, is a center which promotes and teaches environmental sustainability, while also serving as a spiritual retreat, and hostel for international and domestic travelers. It teaches a hands-on approach to a sustainable lifestyle through activities such as alternative building and organic gardening while complementing the processes of nature. While the Hostel is not dedicated to any particular religion or denomination, its educational programs and services are designed to integrate the ecological, social, spiritual, economic and emotional aspects of the human condition.

The bright and shiney moon issued in another round of sitting in the mud and sweating for us here at the hostel. The lodge was well filled and attended, with folks from as far away as Montana and New Hampshire. Our own Mike Joe Jones led the event, poring in the heat.

We had the privilege of another amazing band, this one a group out of New York, by the name of the Giant Panda Guerrilla Dub Squad. Showing up late on Sunday night, they entertained anyone able to stay up by jamming out at the fireside.

Baby arugula are popping there heads in the garden, and sweet potatoes are continuing to emerge. We’re looking forward to harvesting some root crops soon….horray!

And now…Hostel Pirates invade Savannah!

May The Forest Be With You…
