Harmony Woods Ecovillage

Harmony Woods Ecovillage is an intentional living community located just 30 miles southwest of Chattanooga, Tennessee. This specific ecovillage was founded in 2021 and has flourished ever since. They are currently accepting new members.

The community was established with environmental consciousness as its main purpose. Members strive to grow as much of their own food as possible, use as many local and free resources as possible, and live lightly on the earth to reduce their carbon footprint as a team.

Leaders warn those interested that joining Harmony Woods is not for the faint of heart. The group wants its new members to know life is a team effort, and that it takes strength and dedication to sustain their homestead and build, plan, and operate as a tiny community.

In the village, the land, buildings, and infrastructure are collectively owned and managed by all members through a land trust set up by the founders. However, personal living dwellings are owned by individuals who build or buy them. Members are given a ¼ acre of land to live self sustainably.

You can learn more about joining on the FAQ section of the website and see if membership at Harmony Woods is right for you.

Eagles Landing Tiny Community

Believe it or not, Eagles Landing Tiny Community started out as a seafood restaurant. As the owner began to learn more about tiny house culture, his humble restaurant evolved into a tiny house community for those who love life on the lake.

The Landing at Parker Creek restaurant opened in June of 2015 on the shores of Lake Martin. As the restaurant become more popular, several of the regulars mentioned that they owned a boat, but had no place to spend the weekend or week at the lake. This gave owner Herb Winches and his wife Betty an idea. They decided to create a tiny house community for customers to stay as long as they like!

Today, Eagles Landing Tiny Community is made up of several tiny cabins available for rent. When you rent a tiny house on the lake at Eagles Landing, you also receive access to a private boat slip, a beach, swimming pool, barbecue grill, and picnic table area.

You can check out the availability of each tiny cabin through the calendar on the Eagles Landing website.

  1. Good afternoon!

    My name is Kristen Lane and I am the Manager of Zippers Heating and Cooling located in Mobile, Alabama. I’d like to start off with saying that we have had an overwhelmingly favorable response to our vendor relations quest! I’m so excited and hope you will be a part of this great opportunity too!

    I would like to discuss being your A/C vendor for all your new construction of homes, apartments and or buildings here in the gulf coast area. Zippers is family owned by Darwin Pritchard. He has many years working in apartment complexes maintenance department. He is A/C Certified as well as State Certified.

    As for myself, I too come from working in the apartment industry. I have worked in management as a manager, assistant manager and even leasing.

    We understand that times are changing and more employers are seeking vendor relations rather than hiring individuals. We understand working with a budget and keeping costs down, whether capital expense or everyday expense. We also understand the frustration of finding good, quality workers, and or vendors that are reliable and trustworthy. We understand!

    With our years of experience, we would very much like to help with your expenses, your communities and your residents’ comfort. Our pricing is comparable if not lower than most A/C repair companies.

    If you are excited to venture into a relationship with Zippers Heating and Cooling, as we are with you then let’s talk. Our number is 251-725-0192 or you can email us.

    I look forward to hearing from you!
