Tryon Life Community Farm

A meeting, retreat, celebration, or other gathering at TLC Farm is something special. Here, the life of nature is woven into human experience: this place merges indoor and outdoor, living and artificial, wild and domestic.

This program supports our work in bringing various communities and organizations into deeper relation with a particular part of the earth, and through it, each other. We are particularly interested in hosting multiple groups at the same time that can informally interact with each other, or gatherings that are focused on bringing different constituencies into closer and more meaningful interconnection.

Built environments includes an outdoor kitchen, a wood-heated yurt, the "T-Whale" (whimsical covered teahouse), a large barn, a mid-size "community room", and of course our large earthen sauna (with or without heat). (We're also planning on building a large multi-use closed-loop structure that will be available for larger events, in 2008.)

And of course, the fields and the forest are yours to explore and enjoy!
