Howling Moon Homestead

We are a small farm using regenerative practices and permaculture ethics. We are still early on in our journey of working with the land. Our land has been part of our family's homestead for close to one hundred years. 

Enjoy walks around the farm where you'll find many places to relax, meditate or simply enjoy the views.  Guided tours can be arranged and you can explore the gardens, orchard, different methods of raising chickens. 

We're always building and trying new things to optimize our property and care for the land. 

There are many great restaurants only 20 minutes away including Mexican, Thai, a brew pub, a winery and a great coffee shop.

Several trails with lots of opportunities to see nature, particularly wild turkey's and deer and the local bison farm.

Dusting of snow from the front of the property.

This area is in our back field, by the tobacco farm. This photo was taken in the winter so it's normally a lot greener and the view is beautiful.

If you are looking for a dispersed campsite with lots of privacy, this is it! 

We have 4 ponds on the property, and this one is located right by our pavilion area and our camper site #1. The pavilion has electric and water as well. Pond is stocked!

We have farm animals free ranging the property as well, so you might see these guys. They don't normally travel too far away from the house though.

This is another one of our ponds. This is in the front of the property.

Another view of the pond by the pavilion area, during winter. The camper site #1 hookup is just to the right of the pavilion.

This old tobacco barn is positioned in a back field.
