Looking for a couple or small family to be "landmates"  to embrace a transformational lifestyle on a developing homestead here in WNC. A place you can create a life for you and your family that inspires you. Grow your own food, preserve it and cook the abundance of edibles the Earth has to offer on the hearth fire.

I have a beautiful piece of land, bordered on all sides by the Blue ridge Mountains capable of sustaining a family. I would like to get involved with organic produce, livestock and wild edible plants. If we take care of the land, it will take care of us. If you are brave enough to strip away your addictions to the modern world and live a simple, rewarding and wholesome life or help create a paradise that inspires you, this land awaits your passionate contribution. This homesteading lifestyle is not for the faint of heart. At present I have a lot of timber down that needs to be turned into firewood. I have solar and Hydro projects that I need help with, Improve the recreational sites for primitive camping and pull in camp sites.

I am offering a to exchange work for free rent on a small home on the back side of the property. Where you can set up a home stead. I would like to partner on Live stock, garden, bees, etc, Terms of the profit sharing are negotiable. Other items on the  homestead are clearing, planting and harvesting. A trial lease of a year to start this time period would allow us to see if we are a fit for each other. At the end of that time period, I'm offering an optional 3yrs. Cell service is available, power water and septic are also available of course you can go off grid also. Three streams pound the offerings are endless
We are a Christian family that hold to those values but do not impose our views on others, we will do a background check and references are great if you have them
Please draft a letter or e-mail  to tell me about yourself your skills, your experience and why you would want to live on the land and we'll go from there.
