“The years pass and they grow into centuries. We see more clearly. We are to take a new hold.” -L. H. Bailey, The Holy Earth (1915)

The Liberty Hyde Bailey Center exists right now only as an evolving draft proposal, currently in the development and conversation phase. To get a sense of it, we invite you to read this short description recently published by the Rural Humanities Initiative at Cornell University, which awarded us a grant to host a planning retreat in June of 2025.

If this sounds interesting to you, please reach out to us. We are looking for partners and hope you will consider being part of the conversation.
