The 53-acre Headwaters Sanctuary was established by the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word in 2008. It includes the historic source of the San Antonio River (Blue Hole) and acres of undeveloped forest in need of ecological restoration. It is a place of sanctuary for nature and spirit, open to all who respect its sanctity and historic, natural and cultural values.

We clear brush, pick up trash, maintain trails and facilities, remove invasive species, replant natives, beautify this historic and culturally sensitive landscape. And we live for our volunteers!
