With the challenges of the past three years that we have all observed and experienced worldwide, and the solitude it created for many of us, it provided time to reflect on my own life and give pause to what time I may have left in this beautiful world...and how I would ultimately want to spend it. Besides being a professional entrepreneur, I am also a mother of five, an active organic gardener, and have a desire to create homes that are more aligned to function hand in hand with the environment. Having been a career person for 40 years now, I decided this was the time to make a quality of life move and give back to others in a way that is both meaningful and rewarding…thus The Delsa (501c3) was birthed.It is being developed as a vibrant, multifaceted retreat, interweaving personal wellness, environmental, educational and charitable activities into a life changing experience.
