Water at Enota has also been known to 'be still,' unless of course, it's being stirred up by trout, which are stocked into this pond for fishing during the season.
Of course, a lot of the credit for the success of the green at Enota goes to water, in the form of several streams and waterfalls that dot the property. Camping streamside and falling asleep to the murmer of moving water is one of our favorite things about the peacefulness of Enota.
Mother Nature also manages some pretty fancy gardening, herself at Enota, covering the mountainside with wildflowers every spring, so that the hiking trail that connects Enota to the AT is a carpet of beauty.
The success of this endeavor is due to the efforts of Suan, the tireless dream-keeper of Enota and to the staff & volunteers, both adults and school children who spend time at Enota as gardeners-in-training for projects and retreats that give everyone a hands-on education in the art of ecology.
One the biggest draws for folks who love gardening is the organic farm at Enota. It is Enota's goal to become self-sufficient and to that end, the garden grows a little bigger and better every year.
Enota is a mountain retreat and campground (with cabins) up in the N. Ga. Mts. We fell in love with the place after discovering it online when we bought our first camper van in 2004. It's about 2 hours from N. Cobb Co. and almost every shady site is on a stream. We've camped there so much and are so enamored of Enota that I am the 'staff musician' and play and sing campfires throughout the season. I also help out with marketing, so the clips you see on the website from Channel 2 were my inspiration! And that would be of course, www.enota.com Check it out and watch the video!
