Presenting Community:
Harmony Woods is a forming homesteading community on 13 acres of rural land located in Bryant, AL 10 mins from Trenton, GA and 20 mins southwest of Chattanooga, TN.
They are focused on the values of personal freedom, land stewardship, simple living, personal integrity and communication. They aspire to be an example of how humans can live in harmony with the earth as opposed to the current model of destruction of and fighting against nature.
Unlike many communities, Harmony Woods Ecovillage will have very few rules since they believe very strongly in personal freedom. Instead of rules, they screen community members carefully to make sure that they share core values so that only minimal rules will be required to protect quality of life.
