With dedicated sections for gardening, animal husbandry, off-grid living, and more, you'll find a wealth of region-specific knowledge at your fingertips.
Mark your calendars for the highlight of the East Tennessee homesteading year – the ETHA Annual Harvest Festival, held every September as summer's bounty reaches its peak. This vibrant two-day celebration brings together homesteaders, farmers, artisans, and sustainability enthusiasts from across the region for a weekend of learning, sharing, and community building. Set against the backdrop of the stunning Smoky Mountains, the festival grounds come alive with hands-on workshops, engaging talks, lively demonstrations, and a bustling marketplace showcasing the best of local produce and crafts.
