Your Resource for Natural Living
Believing that the human spirit has a deeply rooted need to grow and evolve,
The Natural Living Institute offers hands on experiential classes and events that
directly focus upon this need. Through developing a unique gathering of like-minded people who are dedicated to working closely with various community organizations
and nationally known teachers of conscious leadership, we have established the four
main ideals of the Natural Living Institute. |
Grandma's Farm believes that STRENGTH through GOOD HEALTH
comes from a diet of naturally grown produce, fresh air, and exercise. All of
these and more are available to you through the gardens at Grandma's Farm.
Some of the benefits that you will experience include:
Enjoying the many colorful flower gardens
Naturally Grown Produce (seasonal)
An example of a wind generated drip irrigation system
Two types of Greenhouses -one created from a pit silo the second
created from a barn (construction on these will begin as soon as the clubhouse
remodel is complete).
Greenhouses offering year round local produce (not yet open)
Once the Greenhouses are complete we will offer Natural Food and
Horticultural Classes

HOPE through SPIRITUAL WISDOM is the driving force behind every
activity that is and ever will be offered through Grandma’s Farm. We feel that
through spiritual wisdom, all things are possible. Operating from the belief that Spirituality is a fundamental necessity for a happy and healthy lifestyle, we will
offer classes and events that focus upon inspiring individuals to connect with their divine human potential. With this as our main goal we recognize that every
religion is a pathway to the creator and encourage everyone to join us in cele-
brating our diversities in a way that benefits all life everywhere.
Spiritually focused events currently being offered at Grandma's Farm:
GRANDMA’ S GROUP is a gathering of like-minded people who come
together to teach, share, and discuss our experiences with one another,
creating a Spiritual family. Click on the EVENTS button for a more
detailed description about Grandma’s Group, or click on the CALENDAR
button for information about upcoming meetings
Grandma's Farm offers SPECIALIZED CLASSES, LECTURES,
DISCUSSION COURSES, AND WORKSHOPS dealing with all areas of
Spirituality. We are currently making contacts for future plans of bringing nationally and internationally known teachers, such as Amag, a spiritual
leader from Mexico City, to Grandma's Farm. We are very excited about
the insights that each of these gifted teachers offer and will work diligently
to bring them and their messages to you. As teachers are booked, and
classes are developed we will post them on our CALENDAR and EVENTS
pages. Please check them regularly.

INTUTIVE SPIRITUAL COUNSELING - Many of you know me as
Cindy Siebler, my given name. Some of you know me as Moon Light
Dancing, my Spiritual name. Ever since I was a small child around the
age of 5, I knew that I was not of this third dimensional realm and have
spent my entire life discovering where it is that I truly do come from.
Wanting to understand the Spirit within and its connection to all life
everywhere, I have found Spiritual Truths. I call these truths “Simply
Profound” as I have discovered that, in most cases, it is exactly how they
work in my life…Simply and Profoundly.
Working with these truths has placed me upon my Spiritual path. It is my
hope and blessing for each of you to find these and apply them in your
lives as well. Because of this, I will be offering a series of workshops
which I call “Dancing with the Moon”. These will cover the fundamentals
as well as some of the advanced teachings I have been honored to receive
from, not only my physical teachers, but those who come to me on the
inner levels as well. It is part of my life’s purpose to help people connect
with their inner wisdom and guidance. Because of this, I do what I call
“Intuitive Spiritual Counseling” where I use my spiritual understandings
and gifts to help people connect with their own Simply Profound Truths.
These counseling sessions, also referred to as Readings, are a very
precious part of my spiritual service work. If you would like more
detailed information about my spiritual counseling, please contact me
either by phone or E-mail, and I will be glad to talk to you on a more
personal level. |
JOY through SELF EXPRESSION is easy to find at Grandma’s Farm.
It is everywhere. We encourage artists to come and share their artistic abilities
in a variety of ways. If you are interested in teaching a class or attending one,
call or E-mail Grandma's Farm at any time. As these classes and events are developed, we will post them on our CALENDAR and EVENTS pages. Please
check them regularly.
In the fall of 2003, we saw the need for an ACOUSTIC MUSIC forum in
the Wichita area, so we began our once a month acoustic music jam.
Everyone is welcome to come and enjoy a total sensory evening, in the
country, under the stars, by the campfire, listening to wonderful acoustic
music. Or perhaps your idea of heaven is to be playing the music not just
listening. At Grandma’s Farm we have the very best of both pickers and
grinners. The fun starts about DARK-THIRTY, be sure to bring your
instruments and some snacks to share.
See YOU around the campfire.
One of the most popular events at Grandma's Farm is our DRUMMING
CIRCLE. The drumming circle is a very ancient and sacred experience.
It is a time to come together as a community and express our personal and
collective gratitude for Earth. We drum and sing praise and gratitude
for all the beauty and bounty that mother earth freely offers to all the life she
supports. Everyone is asked to bring drums, rattles, and flutes as well as
snacks to share. |
We realize that every aspect of Grandma's Farm is important for personal
growth and transformation. However, we feel that our EARTH KEEPING activities are perhaps the most necessary for this time in human history.
So, it is with heartfelt thanks for the Great Plains Earth Institute’s support,
both emotional and collaborative, that has been an invaluable resource for
Grandma's Farm. Drawing upon Great Plains Earth Institute’s years of wisdom
and guidance, together, with the resources of Grandma’s Farm, we are
developing programs that not only teach and inform but actively includes the
participants, showing them that being in tune with nature instead of against it
is more in harmony with our natural state of being.
Our collaborating efforts include:
Classes, Discussion Courses, Lectures, and Videos that focus upon
tools and resources for a more natural harmonious lifestyle.
Developing experiential programs like Wild Crafting and Earth
Therapy and Bee Keeping with Grandma's Farm’s own hives.
Installing Wind Turbines as one of the main sources of power for
the farm.
Opening the MERCANTILE, a retail shop offering a variety of
earth friendly products.
A major focus for Grandma’s Farm and Great Plains Earth Institutes
collaboration is to encourage innovative individuals and organiz-
ations that are interested in creating experimental stations
throughout the farms natural environments. The areas of research
and development that are of most interest at this time are natural
alternatives necessary for food production, earth friendly energy
systems, and green building. It is through this expanded collaboration
that, together, we will invent new systems capable of improving the
quality of life for generations to come as well as preserve Earth’s
natural resources. These various working models will then become
educational opportunities for all who come to Grandma’s Farm.
There will be many opportunities for volunteers as we develop, design,
and build examples of experimental Earth friendly technologies and green
buildings.

Grandma’s Farm is an experiential educational forum offering learning
opportunities for all people. Classes and activities are also being developed
for the elderly and handicapped.
We at Grandma's Farm believe that, once people begin to realize their
connection to a whole that extends throughout all of creation, they develop
a deeper connection not only with their immediate relationships but also those
they experience out in their community and eventually the entire planet. Through
a partnership with the Natural Living Institute, personal transformations will
occur, such as a deeper sense of self-awareness, the confidence in self-reliance
and the acceptance of responsibility for all of their actions. It is these positive,
life affirming belief systems that will not only attract people but will keep them
coming back. We will always be open to the insights and suggestions of our participants, developing ongoing relationships of growth. |
