Quentin  B.’s Land

Lake Garfield was named after President Garfield and was where he had his summer house. My place is the original boatshed of the house. The treehouse was built 15 years ago as a sleepout to watch the stars. It's a pretty quiet Lake up in the mountains of the Berkshires and sits at 1200feet so the nights get a little crisp which makes for a great night's sleep.


This is the bed and necessary equipment is all in the pot!

Sunflower Retreat

A humble, 2-acre vegetarian family micro farm.  Home to our family of five, 2 cats, 2 rabbits and sixteen chickens. Beautiful, established flower gardens, fruit trees and veggies.   This is also home to Sunflower Yoga & Mindfulness where yoga and meditation are taught.  The cabin is nestled in the 1 acre of woods behind our home,  protected by large old pines and surrounding acres of forest. Home to many songbirds, woodpeckers, raven, deer, porcupine and the occasional black bear.  A true retreat.Small, rustic cabin with electricity in the woods behind our home in the hilltowns of Western Massachusetts. You are just 300 feet from the house, but while in the woods you will have complete privacy. The woods are filled with songbirds and there is a small platform for meditation. There is no wifi in the cabin, so enjoy the ability to disconnect from it all while connecting within. The hilltown region is rich with rivers and lakes for swimming, boating and fishing and forests for hiking. We are just 30 min to Northampton and 45min-1hour from the many cultural offerings of the Berkshires.Learn more about this land:Small, rustic cabin with electricity in the woods behind our home in the hilltowns of Western Massachusetts.

The warm cabin on a cold late summer night.

Using a gas stove we brought, we cooked outside.

The front patio is a great place to hang out.

Open forests with plenty of room to roam.

Black Rabbit Farm



Black Rabbit Farm is not only a beautiful oasis, but a fully operational 10 acre farm. 

Situated at the foot of the Berkshires, the farm is home to a small orchard, vineyard, and garden space. 

We take pride in creating a sustainable environment for all our production, based on what the land has to offer. Small greenhouse spaces create year-round production. Rocky hillside will develop a significant "terroir" for our grapes. Even adopted cats prowl the fields to reduce small animal populations.

The views are to die for and the easy access to Rte 91 and the Mass Pike will make your trip an easy one for all involved.

Visit our gallery farmstore, open Friday-Sunday, and find local punk crafts, clothing, cut flowers, heirloom vegetables, CBD products, and more!

Rosy Goat Farm

Welcome to Rosy Goat Farm!!
We are the quintessential family farm/homestead, our farmhouse was built in the 1840’s
Bill and I bought this 15-acre property in 2012, It was overgrown with wild roses. We have worked with a limited budget, and used animals to clear the land. The goats love the roses, but they only eat the leaves. The pigs dig the roses up. Chickens rake it clean. Win win!
Very interesting place here- lots to tell you, there’s quite a list of things to do and see around here! Did you know that Gilbertville has a covered bridge? It is one of the last covered bridges still in use in Massachusetts!
First- a touch of History:
Rev. Timothy Ruggles bought this land from the Native Americans for his family to live on, and work the land. His son, Brigadeer General Timothy Ruggles became unpopular after he introduced the Stamp Act, and was banished to Nova Scotia. 
His daughter Bathsheba became the first woman executed in the United States for the murder of her husband Joshua Spooner. (There’s a book about it called Murdered by his wife by Deborah Navas.)
Want to know local eateries?
For breakfasts and lunch there is The Whistle Stop diner, it was a former Boston & Albany Railroad station and now, The Mass Central Rail Trail runs through here; and Rose 32, a well known bakery that serves tea, coffee and sandwiches.

Wilder Hill Gardens

Wilder Hill Gardens is a working farm nursery.
We grow nursery stock using sustainable methods.
On the land, you might see a robust flock of laying hens, pigs in a portable pen cultivating new ground, plantings of medicinal herbs, and gorgeous
 sun and shade display gardens. A half acre of pick-your-own pears, currants, gooseberries and blueberries yields organic fruit from mid-July through September.

With pristine water from our well and forests all around, you will camp amid our gardens and orchards. Visit the chickens and pick fresh, organic fruit in season. Walk down the country road to the Bear River for a dip or explore nearby Shelburne Falls. 
We have a newly built outhouse. Enjoy a rustic “bucket bath’ or outdoor  shower while looking over the wooded hillsides.

Wilder Hill Gardens is very peaceful, guaranteed you will be greeted by bird song every morning and the evening sky is bright with stars. We are in a lovely rural neighborhood yet centrally located to any number of natural wonders and cultural activities.

There is a limit of two tents
on each site and four people.

Each site has a separate fire pit,
water source, and private camping area. Sorry, but we are not accepting pets at this time.

There are two farm dogs, Viola and Jackson at Wilder Hill Gardens. They are friendly, well trained and mostly work along side me. But they do have free range of the farm and if anyone in your party has a fear or dislike  of dogs this is probably not the best choice for you.

We have PYO fresh fruit, vegetables, cut flowers, eggs, and all of our nursery stock for sale in season.  There is a newly built garden shop and art gallery with a 12 Ft. Mosaic made of thousands of handmade porcelain pieces.
We accept cash or checks or Venmo
but not credit cards. Check out our Extras!

Farm Dogs, Viola and Jackson, careful..Jackson might take off with your flip flops!

Medicinal Roses hug our property. Here, harvesting Rosa rugosa for heart-medicine. A delectable, awakening fragrance. This variety is apparently ever-bearing, Spring to Fall. Enjoy some yourself! 

Healers' Headquarters

Here, we are carrying out a vision for Global Restoration. This site came through in dreams and prayers. The place to carry out our passions and visions. A place to let our talents rip. Two businesses live here. Mangold Leather, and the Greentek World-Repair Nursery. This site is young. We have been living here since May 2018. There is much to do. Never bored, as here, we answer the question, who are we, what do we want, and what is the world we are here build. Life can be beautiful and easy. We champion Edible Ecological Restoration. Every year the Native Fruit.Nut Nursery Grows, sell more plants, and hosting more free public plantings, while our leather shop supports our lives. It;s time to restore the Earth. We all have a role to play, and this is where WE are hiding out, for now, the enact our greatest work, and have a great time doing it. Care to join us. This is a safe and sacred environment. Learn more about this land:Come stay in the forests of Shelburne, MA. Our site offers private camping in the woods, and easy-access to meadow, view of a large pond and ever-expanding permaculture gardens. The 'Healers' Headuarters' is our haven, where we grow native Fruit, Nut and Medicine plants, that we sell and use for free public plantings in towns and cities. This is the headquarters where plants are grown for our non-profit planting campaign. Likewise, we run an artisan leather shop, using a roadside barn on site that has been converted into a studio-gallery. Check out our grass-fed bison leather bags, belts, armor and sculptures. It's time to Restore the Earth! It's time for a better world! 

Here, we are doing the work that we believe in, answering the call to restore our planet and help people, spreading native plants for edible-restoration, while planting a living, edible-ecological model on site! It's time to build a better world. This is our small, growing-community's space to create and SPREAD the world that we KNOW all can share in the future! Medicines, healing arts, crafts and tasteful projects abound. We are on the path of personal and planetary growth.

This spot is a straight shot to the famed 'bridge of flowers'. We're 10 min from charming Shelburne Falls. We're en route to MASS MOCA, skiing in the winter, and leaf-peeping in fall. You might be surprised pulling into our little kingdom, to discover that we are so close to a MAJOR ROAD. PLEASE NOTE::: We are ON Mohawk Trail. This high-traffic site allows our work to reach the most people! HOWEVER! If you are incredibly sensitive to ROAD PRESENCE, VEHICLE NOISES, PROXIMITY TO TRAFFIC, it might be off-putting.That said,  as soon as one steps to the back behind the property, it is an oasis. The cars are out of sight (but not sound), and it's nothing but grass, plants, trees, birds, pollinators and life!  For travelers, this happens to be a VERY accessible location. 

Fall Colors. New-England's great show, before winter!

The Hide-away. 
Our great big pond and artisan shop!
