I have a deck with the exact same idea. I haven't posted it yet. When I get home today I will. Essentially mine only has white basic mana and then the dual lands you have. It runs mostly as white with a splash of the other colors and is pretty efficient.
You need {vault of the archangel}
Replace 2 Gavonys with 2 Vaults. This way, you still get constistency but you don't have to draw too many colorless mana.
If you have one Gavony out, you only need one. And if you have 4 in your deck, by the time you have enough mana to use its ability without sacrificing other important uses for your mana, you would probably already have control of more than 1.
Edit: Oh I see you already replaced 2 Gavonys. Silly me. Well, you can replace 1 backwoods and 1 gavony OR 2 backwoods. Those seem like good choices to me. Though I would just go for the latter because I like consistency.
Not crazy about the grim backwoods either. This token deck should be typically fast. You are gonna want to use your mana to activate the vault.
Take out gavony, grim
Put in 3 vaults and a basic or a isolated chapel

Excellent idea here!
What's the point of {Stonehorn Dignitary}? I say replace it with 2 Gavonys. I'd also try {Blade Splicer}, and I personally enjoy {Parallel Lives}, though I understand it's not perfect
If you like the battle cry mechanic, you could drop a few {signal pest}s in there to help pump your attackers :)
I have a few suggestions for this one. I would take out the Dignitaries and put in a few {Thraben Doomsayer} for the token generation alone but then you also get fateful hour which forces your opponent to wait until they can take you down in one shot or risk having ALL your creatures getting a boost. I would also run both {Lingering Souls} for it's flashback awesomeness AND {Midnight Haunting} for it's instant speed. That being said, I think it would be wise to run {Parallel Lives} to really screw your opponent over late game. And {Geist Honored Monk} wouldn't be a bad fit either. Sorry for such a long post. I'll shut up now 😷
And you most definitely want {Geist-Honored Monk}, she gets so huge in token decks
Actually one of the best things I've seen that works well with token gen is {essence of the wilds}
It's awesome because your tokens hit the field as 6/6's and it makes ratchet bombs (and the rest of the instant board wipes) much harder to do mass takedown.
Of course that would totally change your deck tho.. Lol

Ok updated. Here's the million dollar question: should I just take green out? Love the {Doomed Traveler} and {Beast Within Combo} but not sure it's worth it. Originally had green in for {Parallel Lives} but that's gone. Kinda leaning towards going W/B UNLESS it's worth putting {Garruk, Primal Hunter} in. What do you guys think?
Most versions I've seen have had green for {Parallel Lives}, {Gavony Township}, and some form of Garruk. All very nice for tokens
I do like running as many {honor of the pure} as i can get out and {doomed travelers} which is made even better with an {avacyn's collar} attached.
Then also hit em with a {break of day} or something similar ({moment of heroism}) and they start doing some serious damage. Not bad for a bunch of cheap cards to play.
Also {true conviction} is really worth a look.
You might want {Elspeth Tirel}. It's everything you need; tokens, lifegain, and boardwipe (all perms but land and tokens ftw!). You can do her ultimate on turn 2 of having her out and she's still alive! :D
Although her boardwipe may be annoying if you have a SLoI out or Parralel Lives.
I prefer blade splicer over the guard, cheaper and you get a bigger token immediately instead if waiting for the guard to die. And I would absolutely run parallel lives in a white green token deck. When you cast fresh meat after your opponent wrathed your birdies and parallel lives is on the board you will be a believer. Done it many times. Not sure about your meta game but you should run celestial purge in your sideboard. And definitely pick up a couple elspeth; just hold back a virtues if she is on the board.
Blade Splicer is great if mimic vatted with parralel lives. You get 4 tokens a turn.

Wouldn't it only be 2 assuming she doesn't die as soon as she's brought out?

4 Golems
Put in {garruk relentless} instead of primal. My gf plays this deck. She wins or places almost every fnm.
