About the Good Earth Farm
The farm is a place where memories are made. Meet the animals, walk around, grab a beverage, and enjoy the South Dakota prairie. The Good Earth is a working farm. Nancy and Jeff use sustainable practices to grow vegetables that are sold through their farm stand. They lovingly take care of the animals that are the life of this place. Their woodfired pizza ovens allow them to create a true farm to table experience. Nancy grows the ingredients that top the pizzas. Other ingredients are sourced from local growers.
The Good Earth Farm and Animal Sanctuary is located at 28318 466th Ave Lennox, SD 57039 and was just featured in a Super Bowl Ad with Google!

Imagine practicing yoga surrounded by the beauty of a historic barn, golden light filtering through the wood, and the hum of a supportive community flowing beside you. This is the magic of The Sanctuary Retreat—where movement becomes meditation and every breath is an invitation to open more fully into life.
-
Under twinkling lights and the rustic warmth of the barn, experience the deep exhale your body has been craving. This retreat isn’t just about movement—it’s about finding stillness, reconnecting with yourself, and embracing the quiet magic of rest.
-
Good Earth Farm is an experience like none other. As the sun sets over the fields and warm lights glow from the barn, you’ll feel the deep exhale of stepping into a space designed for renewal, reflection, and joy.
-
This isn’t your average retreat food. Experience the magic of a real wood-fired oven, where ingredients from the farm turn into nourishing, delicious meals that fuel both body and soul.
-
What’s a retreat without amazing food? At Good Earth Farm, enjoy fresh, farm-to-table wood-fired pizzas crafted with local ingredients. After a day of movement and mindfulness, there’s nothing better than gathering around the table, sharing stories, and savoring a meal made with love.
-
Good Earth Farm is home to more than just yoga and community—it’s also home to some of the cutest four-legged residents. Whether you’re stretching in the fields or strolling between sessions, don’t be surprised if you make a few furry friends along the way!
