We have 155 acres of the beautiful Sierra foothills ready to be explored! We are ~12 minutes from downtown Murphys. This is a working farm where we grow produce for our business, Blooms and Shrooms. The cut flowers during the growing season are a fan favorite. When available we offer bouquets as an add-on, or you can always cut your own! There are a few different listings, so make sure to read the details on your specific listing.. There’s the Soup Kitchen which has 3 sites. The End of The Driveway is one site for buses/RVs/big vans. 1 Pine and 2 Pine are up a separate driveway on the ridge. Then there’s the bus! The 1st area to park/camp is the “Soup Kitchen” near the flower garden where you can enjoy an outdoor shower, kitchen space and established fire pit (see pics of the Soup Kitchen). This area is down the driveway a couple hundred yards from where we usually are so you’ll more or less be on your own, depending on if we have work to do down there or if there are other campers. We are happy to chat or leave you be, just let us know what your needs are. If you’re looking for a more isolated spot, see the listings for 1 Pine or 2 Pine. The 2nd area is “1 Pine” accessed by our second driveway that is 100 yards down the road from the farm. The driveway is kind of rough but definitely manageable with a truck, SUV or sedan if you’re willing to go for it. The drive goes up a couple hundred yards to the hilltop where there is a clearing and, you guessed it, 1 pine tree. From the back of the clearing there is a trail that leads you to 2 Pine, which is a walk that takes just a few minutes. 2 Pine is walk-in only but has great views of the sunset and is totally secluded and private and would be a good spot to either bring some friends for a little sunset party or for someone who wants to seriously unplug. There are plenty of flat spots to pitch a tent. **if you are a teacher or Pacific Crest Trail hiker let us know! We are happy to offer a discount :)

The Soup Kitchen
A Great and Easy Spot!
What a great spot! We were at the spot by the flower garden and it was so pleasant and private too. We made use of the sturdy wood tables, the super cute outhouse (if outhouses can be cute? ha), and the potable water. Would definitely recommend!

1950’s Vintage Camper
The camper van was awesome! Super vintage. So cool. The bed was super comfortable too. They were very friendly and kind. Outdoor kitchen worked great since it rained.

Super Soup Kitchen
Beautiful spot and a great set up. The Soup Kitchen provided us with all the amenities we needed for cooking and the whole place is just so charming! We enjoyed a night of star gazing and rest and are so thankful for Ben & Heather’s hospitality.

The Big White Bus
A Hipcamp Must Visit!
Amazing experience! Serene and very peaceful place. The bus has everything you could possibly need: queen bed, dresser, table, fridge, couch, electricity, games and books. Full outdoor kitchen to use. Multiple sources of clean drinking water. Fire pit complete with firewood. Ben and his wife were very kind and accommodating. Would definitely come back again!

1 Pine Car Camping
Was fine but not worth the price. Was a dusty dirt patch that I’m sure will get better, it looked like it was recently clear land.
