A little over 2 years ago, our family began a journey to find property with room for multiple generations of our family to build and live. Following in the footsteps of America’s early settlers, we began looking for a place where we could live more freely. A place where we could experience life more fully.

A place to call home. After months of searching, we settled on 122 acres in Ball Ground, a small town about an hour north of Atlanta, GA. After establishing the homesites needed for our family, we decided to sell a small tract and invite someone to join us on our journey.

We had no way of predicting what would follow!
Our Story

Stampede! It seems that we had struck a vein of deep desire many others were experiencing. The pursuit of security, privacy, and greater independence had struck a chord with the many. We’d stumbled onto a grass roots movement - modern homesteading.
People are looking for more self-sufficiency, a slower pace and a return to a simpler way of living.
We had disclosed our background as Builders & Developers, and this proved to be a key ingredient. For five generations, my family has been building and developing in Atlanta. It provided a level of confidence and helped overcome fear of the unknown. Questions about permitting, construction, septic, land development and starting a farm are real obstacles when considering a move to a rural tract of land and our experience and knowledge in construction & development provided the reassurance needed. Our Country was settled by courageous visionaries pursuing a better life. It was envisioned as a “City on a Hill” where faith, family and community were valued. Today, a “modern pilgrim” movement has begun and a new migration trend is underway. Post Covid, a new world has emerged. How we want to work and live is experiencing a pivotal change. Welcome to Sanctuaire Farms.
We hope you’ll join us on our journey!
The Beecham FamilySanctuaire Farms is a response to a growing shift in how we chose to live & work. A home for modern world pioneers and pilgrims. A place to discover...
