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. Beautiful sunsets and night sky. Wildlife, diverse plants, birdwatching. Learn about regenerative farming. Fish/kayak/canoe at lake or creek. Horse Pens 40/Ashville/Springville minutes away (good restaurants). 1 hour to Mentone, Little River Canyon, Lake Guntersville. Video security at entrance.

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. Beautiful sunsets and night sky. Wildlife, diverse plants, birdwatching. Learn about regenerative farming.

I truly enjoyed my time at the site. We got in super late, around 10pm, and still were able to find everything we needed for our stay. The host has thought of everything, providing simple instructions, rapid replies to questions/concerns, and has a handy assortment of site amenities that would make any experienced camper sigh in relief, and a newbies like us say "holy cow that's so smart!".

It was quiet and private. The dogs felt at home. Really couldn’t get wet on the property. Plenty of area to fish. All in all, I would stay again, but it would have to be earlier in the year or later in the year because there’s no way that you can swim out there really which is important to us.

The land was so beautiful and peaceful. We stayed at “The Ledge” and had amazing views and sounds (waterfalls, birds, and tigers)! Everything was well-kept. The shower was nice and got hot! The wood-fire bundle was also worth it. Thank you for the great place to stay!

I really enjoyed tent camping on Rachel’s land ! Everything was clean and beautiful. The hot shower was fantastic and having electricity on demand was great also! Firewood was provided although… I didn’t get a chance to use it only because the winds were blowing so much, I didn’t want to be irresponsible. I read where people mention the road noise…I think the key is getting there early enough and after a little bit, you kind of don’t notice it. Now, if you got there right before or at nightfall, it might be an irritant for a little while but… it dies down dramatically. It felt extremely safe and private. Upon getting there, Rachel’s dad and husband, met me at the gate, unlocked it and showed me everything I needed to be shown. How to use the hot shower, which was easy, how to turn on the power and use the electricity box, which was also easy also. The box had a 50-30- and 4 standard outlets …so you were covered all the way around as far as being able to have electricity for your tent or RV or pop-up! Also, there was a water outlet with drinkable water and three additional outlets for water…Note… it was great having a light switch on the electrical box, which turned on the lights goingacross the camping area! Right before they left, I was given the key to the gate and told to call if I had any issues or questions whatsoever, so I could lock and unlock the gate anytime ! Great place and great people! I am already planning my next trip back! Thank you so so much Rachel ! 😊

Awesome experience from start to finish. It was a bit cold and rainy but that all faded to the background as we explored the property and got settled. This is a very special place and we will be back.
Special shoutout to Zed. He made my car battery dying a fun adventure and I can honestly say I’ve never said that in my life. A million thank yous!
