Locations
The A Rocha Ontario Centre at 1440 Westover Road, Millgrove, ON is centrally located a short distance from Hamilton, Burlington, Guelph, Cambridge and Kitchener. This beautiful, 55-acre organic farm features hill-top views, a large garden, fields, creek, and pond. We have outdoor shelters for classrooms and cozy indoor space for hosting small retreats and workshops.
We are also in partnership with communities at Windstone Farm (Ottawa, Beckwith Township) and in the Ottawa/Gatineau area.
We are grateful to work (and live) within the Halton-Hamilton Watershed of Lake Ontario, on the traditional territories of the Ho-de-no-sau-nee-ga (Haudenosaunee), Anishinabewaki ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ , Attiwonderonk, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, and Mississauga First Nations, covered by the Dish with One Spoon Covenant.
