Evergreen Guild

We are primarily a Permaculture learning lab and living center on 55 acres of land in the Sam Houston Forest in Evergreen, Texas. Camping fees help us meet new people and pay our expense and improvement costs. We try to keep our camping sites in tree stands to keep the look and feel of pure nature as much as possible. There is currently 5 sites. We are slowly developing new primitive sites. There is a pond on the property. The hike to the pond is a fairly easy trail. There are some open areas for riding your bikes and ATVs. There are many brushy areas for exploring. If you make it to the back of the property(bring your compass), there is a shallow creek year around. Bring your walking sticks, bikes, ATVs, fishing poles and bait, life jackets, canoe, kayak, raft, paddles. Off-grid primitive camping is available year around. Costs are$20 per night with your own off-grid camping equipment and $80 per night to rent our equipment. Tent setup is on the forest floor. We grow and regenerate the soil using organic principles. Please only apply bug spray at your campsite). City water is available to fill RV water tanks and containers near the Host shed. Hot water is available in your container upon request. There is an open outdoor restroom and shower for public use available at the back of the shed. We suggest a mosquito net for outdoor open sleeping. We suggest the following items be brought to make your experience more enjoyable: shower shoes, long sleeves, long pants, a hat, extra socks and close-toed shoes(rubber boots are nice), a rain coat, a compass, and walking sticks. In WINTER months we suggest clean loose fitting night time only socks, warm pajamas, and extra top sheet and blanket, a small foot blanket for inside your bedding, rubber boots, a warm hat and scarf and warm gloves. We will provide a portable potty for every 3 people and a fire ring. At the end of your stay, we will pickup any bagged and tied trash you leave and properly dispose of your human waste. A charcoal grill is available for use at no charge upon request on a first come first serve basis. Activities included as part of your camping fees include a group evening farm tour and/or trip to the pond upon request, access to pond activities, fishing without a license, hiking and exploring the property, bike rides on trails on your bikes. Youth archery upon request. As we get our tree guilds setup, any available fresh produce will be available for you to pick and eat during your camping stay.
