Support the Manor

The Historic Oddfellow Manor of Elkins WV is more than a house — it's a living vision for community, sustainability, and story. Your tax-deductible donation helps restore our 1908 group home and fuels hands-on education in regenerative agriculture, homesteading, and historic preservation.

Join us in building something rooted and rising.
