We are a family of four living in the Cherokee hills of Tennessee. On 45 acres, we practice organic gardening, homesteading and creating community through authentic relating.
We live naturally and simply, overall. Our place is an immersion in nature, overlooking the valley and surrounded by creeks.
We are specifically interested in hosting people with some building, gardening & /or homesteading experience as Our projects our mostly outdoors. If you have no experience, then, no,, we may not be the place for you.
Though we love traveling and meeting new people, our needs are specific at this time.
Many thanks and blessings.
