Nearly a year after its completion, Stillmeadow Peace Park’s Stone Sanctum continues to offer visitors a peaceful place for worship, reflection, and connection with nature. We recently revisited the site to see how the landscape has filled in and to experience its impact firsthand.
The Stone Sanctum was completed in 2025 as part of an earlier park master planning effort led by Floura Teeter for Stillmeadow Community Fellowship, in partnership with Nature Sacred. It has since become one of the park’s most popular features.
Previously overgrown and unused, visitors now enter this sacred space through a portal formed by salvaged tree trunks, their exposed roots creating a natural archway. Repurposed stones and logs create tiered seating around an exposed boulder, while a stone pathway leads to a secluded bench donated by Nature Sacred.
We’re excited to see the Stone Sanctum continue to support the broader vision of Stillmeadow Peace Park: connecting people with nature through thoughtful ecological restoration and community-centered design.
