Walking The Narrow Ridge: The Path to Sustainability

Since ancient times people all over the world have ventured alone into the wilderness to seek clarity on life direction and decisions, to mark important transitions, and to deepen their connection to their natural origins and to the Divine. The Vision Fast at Narrow Ridge is an 8-day guided experience centered around three days and nights of solitary fasting in a mountain wilderness setting. Narrow Ridge offers a variety of Earth literacy programs including Sustainable Living and Nature Immersion experiences; Alternative Spring and Fall Breaks; Youth Peace Camp; Vision Fasts; Spiritual Education Series; Solstice and Equinox Celebrations; Film Nights; Solar, Natural Building, Gardening, FoodPreservation, and other Sustainability Workshops. Narrow Ridge preserves over 550 acres of land including 150 acres of wilderness and four community land trusts in which residents commit to living in a more harmonious relationship with the land and its inhabitants. Narrow Ridge offers year round community events including community potlucks, music gatherings, weekly yoga and meditation, and the annual Hogskin History Day, which celebrates the history and culture of our Hogskin Valley home. Narrow Ridge is committed to both living and dying in a sustainable manner and has established the Natural Burial Preserve (the first “green cemetery” in the state of Tennessee) to offer a simpler, more natural manner of laying loved ones to rest while preserving the beauty and natural integrity of their final resting place.
