Description
2 acre family permaculture homestead 2 miles outside Asheville NC - Home to a 15 yo girl and many species of farm animals and pets, as well as a multitude of both cultivated and wild plants and fungi. We've been here 5 years and have immersed ourselves in an experiential learning process with a future vision of micro-village-style land sharing and self reliance. We also hold occasional skillshares and workshops at the Asheville land.
