outdoor education, cultural traditions, and the wise use of natural resources.

The beautiful barns on site were once part of a working farm that fed more than a thousand people. The eight acres of natural area are rich with agricultural heritage. Prairie Loft Center is located just west of Hastings, Nebraska. See map.
