The lovely open woodland of Hawthorne Backwoods Sanctuary was a pasture in the 1970's.
Where there are large live oaks on the property, one can imagine those trees stood in the pastures of the 1970's and provided shade for the cattle there.
By the time we purchased this property in 2017, it was a young regenerating hardwood forest.
The previous owners did not inhabit or pollute this land.
We have found very little trash or garbage here, only charred wood when we dig down several feet. You'll have to make up your own story about that.
Our aim is to keep this forest healthy, and allow it to continue to provide shelter and food for the creatures that buzz, burrow, nest, forage, browse, hunt and pass through here regularly.
Hawthorne Backwoods Sanctuary has been a healthy and regenerative place for us, and we feel honored to offer guests an opportunity to rest and to feel
the generous forest energy that has settled us here.
