Divine Nature Alliance —inspiring growth, healing, and harmonious relationships.

Divine Nature Alliance aka DNA is a non-profit public charity 501(c)3 that provides opportunities for people to experience peace and harmony.

Vision: Our vision is that people know, and live in alignment with, their source of spiritual connection within, and recognize that essence in others and in nature.

Mission: Divine Nature Alliance provides an invitation, education and opportunities for people to connect with nature as a source of rejuvenation, inspiration and peace, and to discover, access or explore their own nature as a source of wisdom, strength, creativity, and compassion, and the ability to heal and grow.

Divine Nature Alliance (DNA) is dedicated to:
o Education-focused on horticulture, nature awareness, self-esteem, relationship skills, spiritual awakening, creativity and the experience of peace and beauty.

o Rejuvenation-offering access to beautiful places of retreat, respite, peace, serenity and tranquility where one can be alone (or in groups) safely, in nature.

o Inspiration- providing opportunities and environments that inspire people to access their own inner wisdom, stimulate creative ideas and instill a desire to take action in one's own life-whether that is to deepen their spiritual life, grow a garden, do an art project or take steps toward more harmonious relationships with their loved ones.

When one gains access to the well of wisdom, compassion, strength and creativity within them,
they are well-equipped to live powerful lives.

The Divine Nature Alliance lights the way.
