This is a one of a kind, immersive culinary and farm adventure with cozy accommodations and unique experiences. Subject to availability, Add-On Activities may include goat milking and feeding baby goats, cheesemaking, sourdough, and soapmaking. Join us for a visit you will remember for a lifetime. Your cozy accommodations are attached to the main house and include a private entrance, private bathroom, and bedroom. Within the bedroom is a simple food prep space including a microwave, sink, mini-fridge, Keurig coffee maker, and dishes. There is also a door in the hallway that leads to the main house for the purpose of emergency egress. We ask that you remove your shoes when entering and keep the door closed to keep the farm outside. We would love to show you around the property, introduce you to all of the animals, and share our story with you. The patio and garden areas are available for lounging and wandering as well. Until introductions have been made, we must ask that all guests refrain from interacting with the animals for their safety and yours. Please schedule your tour through messaging. Without an organization prior to your arrival, no interaction is guaranteed. A tour of the farm, to meet and play with the animals is included in you stay. Consider booking any of our add-on experiences such as: +Animal Activity Package- milking goats & bottle-feeding babies $25/per guest +Sourdough Workshop- $25/per guest +Cheesemaking Workshop- $25/per guest +Soapmaking Workshop- $25/per guest All of our animals are very friendly! The goats are strong and heavy, so it is important that we are around to supervise. Be sure you are wearing close-toed shoes, in case, they get super close to you, hoping for treats. We live in the forest, so cell phone reception is limited.
