The Living Well Ecovillage is a mixed-use community/ecovillage focused on health/wellness, sustainability, service to the greater good, and honoring the sacred. This is a 126-acre property bordered by about a mile of frontage on the Deep River on one side and almost a mile of frontage on Sandy Creek on the other side. The community has a combination of private and shared spaces, a community garden, a Greenway/Railtrail along the Deep River, a neighborhood park, and 53 acres of natural area buffering the creek and river. The Living Well Earth Stewards (a separate nonprofit organization) offers a monthly Folk School. The property is beautiful with mountain-like topography, the river, rock outcroppings, high areas, the creek, trails, beautiful woods, and abundant wild edible and medicinal plants. Our community is located near major highway corridors, just two miles from Highway 64 in the town of Franklinville, North Carolina. This property has regional appeal and access, being only a 40 minute drive from Greensboro, 15 minutes from Asheboro and Siler City, and an hour and 15 minutes from RTP (Research Triangle Park), Raleigh, Durham, and Charlotte. We are centrally located between the mountains and ocean, and at the midpoint on the eastern seaboard between New York and Florida. We are also approximately a 6 hour drive from Washington, D.C. and Atlanta, Georgia.
