We have a 14 acre homestead just over the county line in Knoxville TN. We have a small wood business here and we salvage wood from the local area and make useful household wares/jewelry and sell them. We have several gardens and 5 compost bins and chickens, goats, and other animals. We have some shelters on our property with hopes of building more. We have had many different people transition through dharma village, and countles events like sweatlodges, memorial services, weddings, all sorts of parties with members of our community here in Knoxville. Drum circles, potlucks, yoga, etc.
We are open to building our community and offer work exchange for housing with group workdays that are paid. Being only 3 miles from downtown, we have a sweet spot and South Knoxville is becoming the go-to place for cycling, hiking and outdoor activities. We hope to find like-minded people who see the value in sustainability as we do. A new solar moved into the neighborhood and so the vibe is growing leaps and bounds and Knoxville is an open minded community with all sorts of Americorps projects, community gardens, farmers markets, etc.
It really does take a village and we are excited for the unfolding and developing of our little ecovillage near the Smoky Mountains. Check us out on facebook and check out our business page by searching @treespeak2020 on facebook. we have donated to other communities on this site but have not put forth as much effort as we had hoped to stay connected to others nationally and globally. We hope to have a big camping event for travellers to attend and consider the plans we have for this place. We are looking forward to growing each year.
