Guest Access for All of our Visitors
We have many sustainable features on our property and invite our guests to partake of them! We do not use air conditioning in our communal areas, although this is available in private rental spaces. We use composting toilets to create dank soil that becomes vibrant plants, but we alternatively have modern toilets available too. We have an incredibly refreshing outdoor well shower that pumps cool water straight from the ground, but there is a hot shower available inside as well. Please be aware that wifi is available, but it presently does not reach to the rental areas in the back of our property - however, we are constantly upgrading our realities!
We also grow and prepare beyond organic, world class cuisine. This is available to all guests for a reasonable donation. Food can be pre-ordered and customized or simply partaken of if and when it is desirable and convenient.
We can also provide wonderful relaxation or educational retreat experiences! From yoga and massage to gardening and amazing cooking classes, we can fully customize your stay with us to give you exactly what you seek. Please contact us to negotiate the details.
Contact us for reservations!
We currently have 9 cozy spaces on offer:
our charming Cob Cottage, adorable and sweet travel trailers, a bamboo bungalow, teeny tiny crate homes, and several unique private rooms in our main house!
Call, text, or email to make reservations!
Our Cob Cottage is a hand sculpted dwelling that combines the rustic feel of an indigenous hut with the basic comforts of modern living!
Set at the edge of the grounds of our small but busy ecovillage, the view is pastoral and quiet,
yet it's only minutes to the DFW metroplex. Enjoy the tranquility of our bamboo forest from the screened-in porch!
The cottage is beautiful and very private though it is simple. This is for people who want a quiet, natural experience.
There is a single private composting toilet for your convenience, and another facility for communal use near the main house. Alternatively you can use the shared indoor bathroom in the main house if you wish.
You are welcome to refresh yourself in our outdoor well shower in the summer or the indoor fire-heated shower if conditions permit.
There is electricity, and we can provide a small AC unit for summer or space heater in winter as optional amenities for a small donation.
​
We invite you to enjoy our sustainable alternatives for cooling & heating, like our refreshing outdoor well shower or hot rocks heated on the wood burning stove!

The Garden of Eden
Apply to Live Here
​
Many speak of dreams of living in a thriving, sustainable community based on love and freedom. Most do not have the land or other resources to actually make this happen. At the Garden of Eden, we are fully ready to embrace and support this reality.
Those of us who are here are already living in community, doing what we love, and supporting ourselves and each other sustainably, and LOVING THIS LIFE!
We currently have simple housing available for those who wish to be here now. We are also potentially willing to support the creation of more comfortable, inspired living structures for those who wish to participate in their building and commit to a responsible life at the Garden. We have plenty of space and building materials to provide additional shelter for any new true family.
We expect roughly 50 hours a week of participation in return for room and board, plus all utilities, including Internet access and, most importantly, community involvement. Much more than you would be investing in us, we would really be investing in you. There is already a family of individuals here ready to share, teach support and guide those who are ready to live at this level.
We are also willing to work with those who wish to work outside jobs for pay, contributing mush less of their time here and more of their material resources, under a "rent" type agreement, in which money or other goods or services of value are exchanged for membership in the community.
We have a multitude of opportunities for full-on participation here. One who wishes to work the land can spend his or her days in the garden; another can contribute to sustainable upgrades to the property. Another may wish to commit to keeping our indoor and outdoor space beautiful and providing upgrades, such as cleaning, painting, creating artwork, etc. Another can participate in our entrepreneurial expansion, for which an awesome infrastructure already exists and the right person can continue to facilitate, earning money while also supporting life here.
Our current projects are ideal for those interested in gardening, fashion, food, marketing, many types of computer work, video editing, and more.
For more info on living here:
Life at the Garden of Eden is very different from anywhere else in mainstream American culture, and perhaps from anywhere else in the world.
To live here is to be consciously and deliberately dedicated to conscious evolution and to serving the shared purpose for which this community exists - creating and sharing a truly sustainable community.
