Experience camp at the farm again - or for the first time.

We’re going back to the farm! If you’ve been there, you know why, and if you haven’t, you’re in for a treat. Our home away from home provides comfortable lodging, energizing gathering spaces, relaxing escapes and amazing food. All in a beautiful setting.

We will be staying in an 85 acre riverfront estate near Asheville, North Carolina with walking trails, a full spa, swimming pool, local farm to table dinners, and incredible open sky views at night.

Our Agenda

Meals will be in the Silo Cookhouse, on the patio, or in small groups in our houses.
