  • Trail Planning and Building
  • Compost Bin Construction
  • Cob Bench Building
  • Yoga & Capoeira

We are excited to offer this experience at a low cost to you in exchange for your support in these important projects. The sliding scale registration fee helps us to offset the food costs.

 Join us if you're curious about permaculture, excited to get your hands dirty in nature, and/or looking to meet others are interested in building a more regenerative lifestyle.

Let's come together to co-create and explore new ways to care for our selves, our communities and the planet.


About Seven Springs...

We are a family owned and operated retreat center and natural preserve located on 126 acres in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. We support learning and healing experiences for people, our communities, and the planet. We have some systems installed and so many dreams! That's why we rely upon our extended family of like-hearted people like you for support in achieving our vision. We hope you'll join us for this collaborative weekend in the style of an Amish barnraising. Someday soon we hope we can return the favor and help you achieve your dreams for a better world!
