Visitor Cabin
 Wabi is an aspiring intentional community located on 24 acres of land in southern Ohio. It is home to Healing Heart Herbals, run by herbalist Cindy Parker. Many people visit Wabi throughout the year to reconnect with nature and create community. The community house provides the space for generating income for the community as well as a place to live while building a home. The plan is to create a sustainable eco-community that will have less of an impact on the land. The land is beautiful and magical. Like minded folks live throughout these foothills and other communites exist here as well. We would love to connect with others who are interested in creating community here in Meigs county.
