Our History
Over the past 40 years, Trillium has been a multi-faceted community, education & birthing center. This 80-acre property nestled along Birch Creek & the Little Applegate River was acquired by Friends of Trillium LLC in 2017. We are currently pouring heart & soul into bringing this beautiful environment back to life. We have a variety of opportunities to get involved so feel free to contact us.
Trillium is a home where individuals collaborate, thrive, and do “big work.”

Our Offerings
We are happily at a place in which we are ready to host additional people as both renters and potential members. At this time, rough ideas of what we are looking for in new members include: commitment and desire to be onsite, experience with successful community, design & build skills, and business-savvy. Our long-term goal is to have this land up and running as a retreat center. We are currently prepared to host small camp-outs, personal retreats and sovereign events. For more information about any of these offerings, feel free to get in touch!
