Haven Village is a private residential model with a strong focus on education and economics focused on building resiliency through our on-site natural building trade school. We are not only growing our own internal economy, but the local economy as well. As a Private Membership Association, we are only open to our members. All visitors and overnight guests are required to purchase a $22 member pass as well as sign our Guest Guidelines and Liability Waiver upon arrival. We are located in Southeast Tennessee on the Georgia state line at the foothills of a pristine national forest at an elevation of 1000+ feet. Our 216 acres of beautiful nature nestled between treeline ridges with breathtaking views of the mountains and surrounding landscapes offering a feeling of privacy and seculsion yet connected to the surrounding towns. The agricultural region features a variety of local food producers as well as outdoor activities from hiking, foraging and white water rafting. It is truly a place of peace and tranquility where we can reconnect with nature and ourselves.
Haven Village seeks to model a way of being and developing on the land that honors and cares for nature (the land) and the well-being of those that reside upon it. We foster a culture of care through practicing, learning and growing together as we re-member a more purposeful pathway, and relationship with nature, reaping directly what we sow and sharing the fruits of our creative labor and expression. We knew on our first visit that this land would be the perfect home for the Haven Earth Trade School where we could create a model of a new way of living focused on getting back to nature by building healthy hemp homes and establishing food resiliency. We established the Haven Village Trust, secured funds, and began developing the Masterplan to serve as a roadmap for the immediate development strategy when we arrived on the land full-time in September 2023. We feel guided in these historic times to pioneer just as our ancestors once did, a new (yet ancient) direction and positive future for the generations to come.
We have a shared vetting process. The first step is to watch our informational video that can be watched here or on our YouTube channel @havenearthpma – and then complete our Potential Residential Member Application here. After that we schedule a time to book a call with our members to learn more. The application process can take 1-3 months and begins after potential residential members commits with a $2000 donation which includes a 10-day getting-to-know stay on-site. At that time we review all of our policies and private member documents.
Primary authority rests with the community’s founder(s) or designated leader(s).
