The Procter Center

Back where you belong

Register your retreat or camp days with us.

Procter Center is a retreat, camp, farm and event facility for daytime and overnight groups. Whether you prefer events online, or the conversation and connection you have from attending events in-person, we serve spiritual, community, business, and youth organizations, as well as families and individuals who seek inspiration, reflection, education, teambuilding, and togetherness in a simple, peaceful, and secluded setting. The center sits on 200 acres of a 1,300+ acre site in predominately agricultural Madison County, Ohio. Conveniently located between Columbus and Cincinnati. Procter Center is owned and operated by the Diocese of Southern Ohio.

Retreat or Meet

Procter Center accommodates many types of events, year-round, with a variety of options for your meeting spaces, lodging, meals, and activities. Visitors may even choose to have a unique experience with our farm or woodlands.

This is also a chance to  get the kids out to play at Procter!

Get your eco-spirit going at this event for all ages! We’ll spend time honoring the land, praying for the health of ourselves and the earth, and planting beautiful trees on Procter’s west-side of the property, donated to us by the Community of the Transfiguration. This is part of Procter’s greater mission of Communion Forest.

Procter Kids Garden Club is a free group that will meet four times this year to learn and explore in the garden! Ages 8 to 18 are welcome at any or all of the gatherings. Parents or guardians may join too! Plan to spend about an hour together. Our next meet up will be on May 28th, at 11am.

Our CSAs are for anyone who loves to cook with fresh ingredients! Our vegetables and fruits are picked at peak ripeness and our pasture-raised pork and chicken are something we are very proud of! All grown and raised here, on the farm. Learn more on our farm page.

Reviews

How Was Your Visit?

“Awesome place to have a work retreat. Good food.  Beautiful scenery.  The room we were in had great acoustics didn’t need a microphone, but one was still provided. Highly recommend. Felt comfortable and cozy. Not like sitting in a boardroom”.

The Willows, November 2019

“Thanks to your team for making our time feel perfect and effortless.  I feel rejuvenated and read to go back to the real world”.
