Weekend Trip to Evergreen Oasis FarmThis is a large property of mown grass the size of 4 football fields, decorated around the edge with chic antiques and sitting areas. In the farmyard that you pass through on the way to the sites, there are grazing alpacas & sheep that you can enter the pasture, and feed, and wandering chickens around the barns, an antique shop that is open sometimes, a cut your own flowers field, and future sunflower field and pumpkin patch
There are only 4 very separated camping sites, in the 4 corners of the large field. On Memorial Day weekend, Tim met us early and gave us the freedom to position our travel trailer as we chose, over by the corncrib that had been converted into an outside sitting area / firepit. The other sites were adult couples as well, making our stay very quiet and peaceful. We were in a self-contained travel trailer with our own power and water, looking over a cornfield that hadn't been planted yet. The other couples were in tents and could take advantage of a porta-potty on site.
Mornings and evenings were spent at the farm, mingling with the farm animals, and watching the myriads of birds- sandhill cranes, Canadian geese, trumpeter swans, ducks, and many species of songbirds migrating the St. Croix river valley. Days were spent hiking Wild River State Park which was a 12-minute dive away.
We only spent 2 nights and came home rejuvenated and relaxed.
