We are a working aquaponics farm, located in Marion Co Georgia. From maps it shows that we are about 13 miles straight line distance from Columbus Georgia. That would be true if you could drive through Fort Moore, which you can't so in reality we are actually about 35 mins or 23 miles from Columbus. Luckily if you want to experience some of the activities there, the drive is pleasant with very little traffic. Our rush hour consists on average of about 20 cars until you get back in closer to the city. Our campsite sits beyond the gate in front of our small farm/general store. There are rustic bathrooms with hot water, wifi and plenty to do! We encourage you to hike, bike, and explore. Deer, coyotes, wild hogs, and other creatures roam freely. Any pets must stay fully leashed at all times (see below). Our day starts early in the summer as we harvest for market. We make every effort to be very quiet, but the field crops are close to your camp site. We will never run a tractor until after 11am. You may hear the greenhouse fans kick on starting around 9am when the system starts warming up. Pets - Are welcome if contained on a leash at all times. Due to wildlife and our own animals present, we can not allow dogs to roam freely. Even the best pooch can react uncharacteristically to baby goats, not to mention crazy chickens. Bathrooms - are located next to the store and a short walk from your tent site. Site - Is on level ground for tents campers RV vans and more. There is a fire pit, picnic table and water spigot. The water is not well water and comes from the county main water line. There is a main highway leading up to our gate so you do not have to off road to get to the property. We love to give tours and welcome you to explore. We also for full transparency mention we are a working farm, so roosters, tractors, and other chores start early. We however do not make noise up by your site until much later in the morning. We want you to sleep soundly and peacefully.Welcome to our working aquaponics farm.

Privacy was the best part!

Sweet little stopover on our way to the Panhandle. Plenty of room to park our truck and skiff. Wifi worked well. Enjoyed hearing the coyotes as we turned in for the night. Woke up to chilly temps but there was a gorgeous full moon and we had another campfire to drink coffee by before heading out. The only thing that could be improved upon would be the bathrooms, which needed a bit of maintenance …they had lightbulbs out, and the one with the shower could use a shelf and a hook for setting belongings on. But we were very happy to have bathrooms with hot water all the same! We felt safe here and loved having the place to ourselves.

Had the good fortune to be camping solo. Beautiful property and surroundings. Actually never heard anything from the farming operation. Very peaceful.

Beautiful countryside camping!

I had a wonderful camping experience at Blackbird farm! The hosts, Charity & Jeff, were warm and friendly. The bathroom and shower worked well and the WiFi came in handy, as I had no cellphone signal out there, which goes to show how truly “country” it is. Driving around the area is breathtaking, with rolling hills that made my car ride feel like a rollercoaster through nature. The campsite is only 10 minutes away from Pasaquan, a psychedelic visionary art environment. This was an unexpected treat and if you’re staying at Blackbird Farm, be sure to check it out! Charity gave me a fascinating tour of their aquaponics farm and I love their sustainable approach. I definitely plan on returning in the future!

We loved Charity's place, the tour was very informative and I learned several new ideas to try on my own aquaponics setup

We have really enjoyed staying here. Really peaceful, and the perfect half way point on our journey to Florida from NC. Thank you!
