Host Your Next Gathering
at Pearl Forge
Pearl Forge is a community-centered conservation landscape in Genesee, Wisconsin offering a unique setting for workshops, retreats, educational programs, wellness experiences, meetings, and creative gatherings.
Surrounded by protected farmland, prairie, woodland, and wetland, Pearl Forge provides an opportunity to step away from the distractions of everyday life and reconnect with nature, community, and purpose.
Why Pearl Forge?
A Meaningful Setting
Pearl Forge offers more than a venue. It offers a place.
The landscape itself becomes part of the experience. Prairie restoration areas, agricultural fields, woodland trails, wetlands, and open skies provide opportunities for reflection, learning, inspiration, and connection.
Convenient Yet Removed
Located in the Town of Genesee, Pearl Forge offers easy access from Milwaukee, Waukesha, Madison, and surrounding communities while still providing the feeling of being immersed in a rural landscape.
Mission-Aligned
We believe places matter. We seek partnerships with individuals and organizations whose work strengthens communities, fosters stewardship, encourages creativity, or supports personal growth and wellbeing.
A Place for Gathering
Pearl Forge exists to help people connect—with one another, with the land, and with a shared sense of purpose.
We believe meaningful community can take many forms. It might look like neighbors gathering around a shared meal, a teacher leading a field experience, a local organization hosting a workshop, a group of friends spending time outdoors, or a facilitator creating space for reflection and personal growth.
Rather than prescribing exactly what belongs here, we are interested in supporting experiences that foster connection, curiosity, creativity, stewardship, learning, wellbeing, and community.
If you are looking for a place to bring people together in a meaningful way, we would love to start a conversation.
