City Life to Farm Sanctuary: A New Beginning

BreeAnne Clowdus and her family have found tranquility in the Chattahoochee Hills community, embracing a lifestyle change from suburban rush to a peaceful farm existence. Clowdus described their former life as hectic, marked by constant rushing to activities, which prompted a desire to slow down and reconnect.

The family settled on 15 acres, adopting an "exurban trend" lifestyle of homeschooling and cultivating their own food. This move was a significant departure from their previous routines, allowing them to connect more deeply with nature and each other.

Initially a personal endeavor, the farm, known as The Good Place Farm, soon gained widespread attention. Clowdus shared her learning journey online, amassing over a million followers across social media platforms who are captivated by the farm animals and daily life.

What began as a sanctuary for four has expanded into a community resource. Visitors are welcome to explore, take photos, volunteer, or enjoy interactions with the farm's animals. The farm also features a 24-hour honor-system store selling products like bone broth, bacon, and lamb.

Beyond the immediate benefits of fresh food and a slower pace, living in such an environment offers documented wellness advantages, including stress reduction and lower blood pressure. Clowdus hopes this experience provides her children with lasting life skills and cherished memories.
