Beloved Roots Ranch has the vision of building a sanctuary near the Smoky Mountains, created to help U.S. military veterans heal from the visible and invisible wounds of service.

Our mission is simple: to provide a place of rest, reflection, and restoration where those who have served can slow down, breathe deeply, and begin healing in a peaceful, natural setting.
At Beloved Roots, healing happens through connection with nature, animals, and fellow veterans through equine experiences, greenhouse therapy, cooking and BBQ classes, and much more! Every part of the ranch is intentionally designed to help veterans rediscover peace, resilience, and a renewed sense of belonging, so they can return to life with strength, purpose, and hope.
