Heidi Zimmer's Wild Rice Retreat: A Transformative Experience for Well-Being

Heidi Zimmer's Wild Rice Retreat: A Transformative Experience for Well-Being

Learn how this yogi and entrepreneur used her 25+ years of real estate development experience to build a first of its kind, 10 million dollar wellness center in the Midwest!

"When nothing is certain, anything is possible.” That is Heidi Zimmer's mantra and a piece of wisdom that gives us insight into how Heidi built Wild Rice Retreat in Bayfield, WI, during the pandemic.  Heidi is a real estate development professional and creative entrepreneur with 25+ years of experience in affordable housing, community and economic development as well as urban and rural planning. But she found her life’s work and what truly lights her up as Founder/Owner of Wild Rice Retreat.  Heidi recognized a void in health and wellness spaces in the midwest while practicing to become a yoga teacher and decided her home region needed a place for creativity, rest, wellbeing, and connection to nature.  Wild Rice Retreat is a first of its kind arts and wellness retreat center in the midwest and a place that yogis and anyone curious about health and wellness intentionally travel to.
