Welcome to Brightwood Homestead! This 4-acre property was acquired as raw land in 2020. Since then, we've organically built a place where autonomy and action meet. This little piece of paradise in Durham county is the base of operations for our non-profit organization. My partner, my newborn son, and our host of pets and livestock call this fledgling farm home!
This property serves as a "living classroom," where I empower, encourage, and equip underserved people of color with the skills necessary to live holistic, self-sustainable lives. Our priority is food/occupational security and environmental awareness. Come and share our space for camping, a weekend getaway, a homestead experience, or a safe place to park during your travels.
I spend the majority of my time working the land, occasionally visiting the office or schools. I'm available to help you settle in or point you in the direction of whatever you're looking for in Durham!
Our homestead's amenities include:
Reliable solar and grid power, filtered running well water.
Clean, fully enclosed, and ventilated outhouse with running water and a flushing toilet.
Private, spacious, and HEATED bathhouse with a waterfall shower.
800 sq. ft. screened-in Army tent doubling as a lounge and workspace equipped with a library, desk, comfy seating, and even a full-sized pool table!
Large common area with a fire pit, 10ft grill/smoker, and picnic area.
We are 15 minutes from bustling downtown Durham, grocery stores, and shopping.
20 minutes from the state park, Falls Lake, and the Eno River.
Just off two major highways.
Breakfast, lesson/experience, and volunteer packages available!
Pet and child-friendly!
