Nomad's Land is a spiritual retreat and campground located on a 40-acre former horse paddock at 441 Kimbril Circle in Attalla. It was opened in 2010 by Beau and Ashley Armistead.

The facility hosts traveling "nomads" as part of a Christian ministry. In addition to the 4,000-square-foot barn, the "Nomad's Land Bus" shelters visitors. A dormitory is also planned. Short term visitors participate in drum circles, outdoor concerts, community meals. Longer-term residents seeking spiritual mentorship also participate in green building, and organic gardening projects. An annual pilgrimage walk in October helps raise funds and awareness for the retreat.
