We are a not-for-profit, faith based residential and educational program that provides training and hands-on learning in regenerative agriculture with opportunities to serve with international organizations working to eliminate world hunger.
WWOOF visitors are provided additional opportunities to audit classes and assess if they want to enroll in our three-month intensive program.
Our visitors experience the daily routines of farm life on a beautiful 880 acre property in the hills of East Tennessee. The farm is dedicated to the practice of diverse food production systems, including permaculture, hydroponics, aeroponics, and greenhouses.
Our farm manager is a Permaculture instructor, our campus director/pastor is certified as an instructor of conservation agriculture. We are able to provide a wide range of learning opportunities.
We have newly constructed and fully furnished homes for 24 guests and students. Four homes on the property have 12 bedrooms, each with two beds. Each house has a kitchen, dining area, living room, bathrooms, and laundry room. There are also porches for community fellowship times. Plans are for a community center with a commercial kitchen and guest home for people staying on the farm for special events.
We love good music, and there is a lot of local talent in Eastern TN. Smokey Mountain Park is nearby, providing many opportunities for hiking, camping, and sightseeing. We work in partnerships with local outreach programs to support schools and underserved communities.
