## Overview

Welcome to a small sanctuary where camping meets relaxation and learning amidst nature's bounty. 

# Nestled within the township of Crookwell, our 3 hectare mini farm, offers two idyllic camping options: a walk in site near the tranquil creek, or vehicle camping near our vibrant seasonal garden. 

# We offer a special focus on providing a safe haven for solo travelers, and families wanting to explore rural life. 

# Meet John, our resident agronomist, and Juanita, the creative cook, as they share their passion for sustainable agriculture. 

# An array of seasonal food and vibrant flowers grow in our biodiverse permaculture garden. Seasonal produce is often for sale.

# Guests are welcome to immerse themselves in the rhythms of farm life,. Watch Shep, the Maremma dog, caring for sheep and free-ranging fowls, or just simply chill out.

# Explore the rich tapestry of Upper Lachlan Shire, the Shire of Villages. This is potato, sheep and beef country. Spring lambs are everywhere.

# A short stroll across the paddock, and you will find yourself in the heart of a thriving small town, where the aroma of freshly brewed coffee beckons.

# We offer a unique camping experience where learning, rest, sustainability, and community converge.

- If you aren't sure please ask us.
- Seasonal Garden Produce: please allow us to serve you, rather than helping yourself in the garden or berry patch. The garden produce is our livelihood. Cash and card options are available. BUT generosity is our heart... so there are times when we will share the abundance. We reserve the right to make that choice!
- Shep, the Maremma dog, loves his job as a guardian for the animals, and he also loves campers. So let him mosey around. But please don't chase or harrass the animals that he cares for, because he will do his job to protect them.
- Dams and creeks are present on the property and on the boundaries. There are fenced areas for camping with children. Parents are responsible for their children around the dams and creeks..
- Fire bans operate according to the local area - October to April

> Gorgeous little garden with great views. Felt private despite it being so close to the main property. Juanita and John are so welcoming and you instantly feel at Home! Great use of the outdoor laundry for a shower and sink. It was so nice after a cold night! They left us a gorgeous jar of homemade bread and butter pickles which was a very thoughtful added bonus! I will definitely be back to try Juanita’s cooking x

It’s also the perfect stop if you’re road-tripping from Melbourne to Sydney! We’d definitely come back and spend more time here.

> JnJs Garden is a truly wonderful place and a "must do" for everyone. We had the most amazing stay with our 2 young children who had the best time imaginable. From the moment we arrived we were welcomed like we were familiar friends. The country picturesque landscape was absolutely gorgeous, breathtaking even. We had a couple of issues with our caravan on arrival which John gladly helped us with. We went for the option of the home cooked meal by Juanita which was so delicious we couldn't stop talking about how nice it was for hours, an absolute must do!! Our children fed the chickens, lamb and…
