Gaia Rising Farm is located on Guemes Island, Washington. It is dedicated to moving our community towards a more resilient future, away from fossil fuels and using natural and organic farming methods. Sequoia has lived here for 34 years gardening farming and tending the land using organic and permaculture methods. Her latest venture is raising a small flock of Gotland sheep. Learn more about this land:     I have a campsite in the woods close to my pond      At the pond you may see ducks, swallows, kingfishers, herons and many other visitors. I even had some otters the other day. It's very quiet and peaceful here.   There is a row boat available for rowing around. Although the pond isn't as full in the summer as in the winter, you can still dive off the bank on the deep side.     Depending on the season, some fruits and vegetables will  be available for purchase. Small campfires are allowed as long as there isn't a burn ban on which is common in the late summer months. I will have some fire wood available for sale.     You may visit the sheep through the fence but are not allowed to go through any gates.  I will  be happy to give a short visit for petting and learning about the sheep for a fee of $10 if I am able to arrange a time for that. This year I have 8 adorable lambs.     The beach is at the end of the road. Guemes Island has lots of beachcombing. Guemes "mountain" has nice hiking trail with a dramatic view from the top when the weather is clear.      The Guemes ferry leaves from 6th St and I st. in Anacortes and ruins frequently during the day. The schedule and fares can be found on the Skagit county website.    I have a campsite in the woods close to my pond      At the pond you may see ducks, swallows, kingfishers, herons and many other visitors.

A nice quiet place.
A simple spot in the middle of a forest. Easy to get in. A couple height challenges from branches for my 9’ van. Very quiet and pleasant.

There were a lot of mosquitos. The outhouse was unkempt. It was very private. Nice owls and other birds. Would go back when we could have a campfire

Great farm camp experience
Sweet little tent camp spot. Very private. Very relaxing. Quiet and peaceful. The sheep are adorable, if Sequoia is available I highly recommend meeting the sheep and checking out her beautiful sheep woop crafts. Bought an incredible sheep skin and some hand dyed yarn.

The campsite was private and clean located in a clearing with surrounding woods. Very quiet.

Overall was a nice spot for exploring the island. The spot to turn was not marked so we missed it the first time through. However, after we parked the host put up the sign next to the path you drive down to get to the site.
