Hawk's Nest Healing Gardens is an urban, organic farm where we grow vegetables, medicine plants, raise bees for honey and chickens for eggs. We are located about a 15 minutes drive from downtown Durham making coffee shops and restaurants easily accessible. We are also close to Falls Lake State Park for fishing, boating and water sports. Our family lives here on the farm with our friendly farm dog. Our location is unique in that it is close to amenities, but we are on the outskirts enough to see the stars at night. On the farm, we organize workshops related to regenerative agriculture, rent the garage space for meetings and events, and host farm tours to teach about the permacultural design of the farm. We receive volunteers every Friday to work in the garden. We would love to show you around the farm or host a mini workshop. Ask us for list of farm offerings and cost! Hipcamp guests will sleep in a beautiful 16´tipi on a raised platform. Bathroom access is a certified composting toilet we built from the trees we cut down. There is no electricty in the tipi but the toilet has outlets to charge your phone.The tipi is on a platform in the far corner of our farm. There is a privacy fence from the neighbors on the other side. There is some shade from an Eastern Cedar tree, but otherwise it is in a sunny spot. The platform overlooks our high tunnel and garden. Guests can park in the driveway and walk about 100 feet to the tipi. There is a picnic table and 2 Adirondack style chairs for use. The bathroom is a composting toilet (no shower) located about 80 feet from the tipi. There is an outlet at the bathroom to charge your phone, but no electricity at the campsite. There is an outdoor handwashing station and firepit also nearby. Sleeping in the tipi is on the wooden platform. Guests must bring all of their own gear for sleeping. We do not provide any beds or bedding.
