Earth Song Farm is an organic, bio-dynamic farm growing a variety of produce, chicken, eggs and more. We are also a teaching center and a host farm for volunteers looking to experience homesteading, off-grid living, organic growing and hydroponic techniques. Discovery Park provides a creative free-play setting for kids to learn, discover and grow. A naturopathic wellness center at the farm offers health assessment, iris analysis and botanical herbs to help people dealing with health issues. Learn more about this land: Nestled within the 10-acre organic farm that hosts Earthsong Farm and Discovery Park is an authentic American Indian tipi camping experience. An extra large party tipi ("Great Gatherings") is available for larger groups as a daytime rental or for overnight stays (up to 18 people). This tipi is on a woodchip base for a more primitive authentic experience and has optional cots and chairs for your use. In the fenced Tipi Village compound area there is a large Tipi on a wooden deck, a small play tipi for kids and 2 more tipis under construction. The Tipi is adorned with native American Indian decor and furnished with one queen size bed, bedside table and camp chair. Optional cots available, offering sleep accommodations for a total of 5 -6 people. Tipi Village is equipped with a shared outdoor kitchen and dining area, including a gas barbeque grill and fresh spring water. There is also an instant-heat outdoor shower available. A family-friendly fire pit with surrounding seating is a centralized spot for drum circles, late night marshmallows, and evening conversations. At night you'll see fireflies and hear plenty of crickets, bullfrogs and singing tree frogs. During the day, a special archery area offers targets and tomahawk throwing. You've always wanted to try a bow and tomahawk! Just outside the Tipi Village fence awaits "Discovery Park" for the kids... the "Best Playground Ever!" The park includes kid powered train cars, gem mining, dual zip lines, a real fire truck, woods to explore, a shallow lagoon to take a raft across and much more. Look up DiscoveryParkOhio to see more details. Schedule a tour of the farm to see the animals, greenhouses and an off-grid EarthShip. A walk through the old-growth forest brings a quiet sense of peace and a genuine earthing connection. An old-fashioned General Store offers seasonal organic produce, herbal tinctures and teas, bulk foods, goat milk soap, honey, maple syrup, jams, wooden toys, free-range chickens and eggs, plus much more. Down the road, complimenting the experience of Tipi Village, is the Log Cabin Shop: a muzzle-loading, early American craft & used bookstore.

"Great Gatherings" huge Tipi

Cozy & Creative camping with kids.

The TiPi was in great condition and we were relieved to find a welcoming host, dry fire wood and hot showers. Mostly, it was a safe, fun and welcoming space for the kids to run around and burn off some energy while we prepped dinner and enjoyed a quiet fire. In the big tipi, we brought a ground cover that we placed our kids cots and our sleep pad on while our hosts had placed some chairs as well inside. Easy carefree camping with kids, close to amenities, parks and things to do- though there is plenty of agriculture-tainment on the property. Our kids loved the ziplines and train.

"Horse" Tipi in Tipi Village

This place is incredible, for a day visit or an overnight stay in the Tipi. We ended up bringing our pop-up camper, which we normally camp in, and Steve was very hospitable about it. The kids stayed in the tipi and we slept in the camper, though we could have all fit in the Tipi if we wanted to. I will say, if you're looking for a quiet, private campground, this isn't it. The Discovery Park is open to the public during the day, so sometimes people wander in to check out the Tipis and even play in them a bit. For our purposes, that wasn't an issue at all. We love company and we were happy to share our space with curious kids. Our kids loved playing with other kids during the day, and it was awesome to be able to play in the Discovery Park after hours. The outdoor shower and sink, and the grill area, were a great bonus and we were just living among the chickens. What a fun experience!

"Horse" Tipi in Tipi Village

Fun and memorable experience. Steve was a friendly host and showed us around and let the kids play with his baby chicks. The play area made this a unique overnighter. Glad we opted for this instead of a hotel as we were passing through. Amenities are rustic (portapotty, outdoor shower) but fine if you're used to camping.
