Breath of Life Farm

2 sites · RVs, Tents21 acres · Ashville, AL

The Dry Bones Live (Ezekiel 37). The first visit in 2019 to this 21 acres was both a shock and a confirmation. It had everything on our check list and more - nearly flat land, convenient location, but also twice the acreage, a roadbed, diversity, Monarch butterflies everywhere, access to a big lake.....and it was littered with logs!! They were in piles and scattered everywhere. But this particular land was being placed in my hands to steward and to reveal the creativity and loving nature of Yahweh. And that meant not bulldozing or burning the logs. Instead, the task was to breathe life into the logs and the land through gentle stewardship to protect the biodiversity and build good soil. Breath of Life Farm is being regeneratively developed to cultivate elderberries, vineyards, peaches, mushrooms, and small plantations of trees for wood or nuts. My sister, Pam, and I hope that visitors will come to enjoy the seasonal changes of flower colors, watch for foot and hoof prints of wildlife, enjoy the songs of the birds and the frogs, see how many different native mushroom species they can spot, and be marveled by the stars as they sparkle in the dark night sky. Our wish is that through the years, folks return to see the changes and positive impact of regenerative farming practices. To be a witness to the life breathed into this land. We hope you will be inspired, uplifted, strengthened, and energized by the story of Breath of Life Farm. Peace and blessings, SandraLearn more about this land:Drive up to very private site.

Cottage on the Coosa!

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Ragland, AL

Quiet little Cottage on a dead end street with great water views from screened in porch. Perfect little waterfront getaway for the family or furnished monthly rental. Located on the Coosa River (Lake Logan Martin) also just minutes from a public ramp and swimming at Ten Island Historic Park on Lake Neely Henry. 30 minutes Talladega speedway, new Lincoln boat launch,Honda, Pell City, Gadsden, and Anniston. 1hr East of Birmingham 2hr West of Atlanta It has two rooms both with queen beds a nice sized living room with front screened porch with a swing. Great outdoor space below the retaining wall, the property also features a fire ring and charcoal grill! You will have access to the entire home. 100 feet of water frontage and boat ramp! There is plenty of parking in front of the home. The floating dock is homemade because the water fluctuates when Alabama Power generates water a few miles upstream. If you use the dock you are doing so at your own risk. You are welcome to put chairs at the end of the ramp and still be right next to the water. Before swimming check the APShorline website for lake Neely Henry generator schedule. The water current can be strong. If you are planning on bringing your boat you are welcome to leave it in the water for your entire stay. Feel free to message me before booking with any questions or clarification . I do normally pull the dock out when they lower the water for the winter around the end of October. For stays longer than 1 week you will need to take trash to the free trash dump in Ragland open on Tuesday and Saturday I will give more details after you book :)
