Programa detallado

We are located in the beautiful foothills of the Appalachian mountains in East Tennessee. We Rebecca (lead wedding & event floral designer & budding flower gardener) and Clayton (residential construction, drafting & craftsman in the fields of wood and metal) are a Christian, semi retired couple who are passionate about art in all forms, nature, gardening, community, spiritually, personal relationships and the importance of connecting them all together for a healthy happy life. Our plan for the future is to transform our 6 acre woodlands into several different gardens that can be used to host individuals, couples, small education classes, and other small groups of all ages for a day of learning workshops that features themes that use nature, gardening, art, drawing, reading, painting, meditation, etc to help with healing, grief, recovery, community, kindness, and personal relationships.

Actividades & Turnos

The main house (our home where we live) is an underground house that is being expanded and renovated to accommodate indoor sessions during inclimate weather. Our rooftop English garden is one of several areas being designed and it features several raised beds of flowers and herbs. It is in its final development stage as we are working to put railing around the top for the safety of children and aging seniors. We have several other types of gardens that we desire to develop and we want to exchange ideas and experiences with you on the best way to do that while protecting our small woodlands in their natural habitat. Our future plan is to offer this as a NOT FOR PROFIT. We are not planning to be an organization based company. We simply are just opening our home to welcome new friendships. Please note we are in the preparation stage and our project DOES NOT CREATE ANY PROFIT.

Reglas

Our worldpackers will stay in the 2 story casita that is separated from the main house. It is currently about 90% finished but fully functional with its own living quarters. The bedroom is on the top floor and most all views from the windows appear as if you are in a tree house. We currently are remodeling the outside and are adding a wrap around deck and this is included as one of the areas where help is needed. The casita does have a kitchen where you can cook your own meals if you prefer, but we will gladly cook and include meal sharing with you so long as you have no special diet restrictions. We do tend to eat healthier than most people but our meals still contain all 5 food groups. If you do have diet restrictions and are willing to cook for everyone then we are certainly open to experiencing your new recipes.
