Listen to the gentle brook and barred owls while nestled into the woods of Ashfield, MA on a small herbal homestead. The Kuti is a meditation hut which is perfect for sleeping in on a warm summer's night. It has large windows and screens to keep out the bugs while enjoying a cool mountain breeze. There is a newly built composting toilet on site and well water accessible. Visit the animals where our farm store is filled with herbal teas, tinctures, duck and chicken eggs, screen printed shirts, maple syrup and ghee. Hiking trails are on site, bike to town for a breakfast at Elmer's, take a swim in the lake 1 mile away or visit the enchanting Chapel Falls on Trustees land just down the road. Sweet Birch Herbals is a community herbal company offering workshops, apprenticeships, wellness consultations and hand crafted products including Full Moon Ghee. We grow organic herbs and ethically forage plants for medicine. Request a farm tour, herbalism class or any of our products for your stay here.

Cozy shelter, perfect for brisk fall weather. Nicest outhouse I've ever used!

We loved Hannah’s hut! Even though it was a drizzly night we had a great time in the cosy hut and slept very well in the fresh air coming through it. The privy is very clean and comfortable too. Picked up some gifts from the farmshop on the way out. All in all a great stay!

Magical spot in the woods!

This place is utterly magical! My partner and I spent a romantic night in the woods, gazing at the stars by the picnic table and taking in the sounds of the forest at night. You feel truly immersed by the nature with magical little details like fresh flowers and fairy lights throughout! HIGHLY recommend staying here and Hannah is wonderful! Definitely check out the store, the horses, the flower garden, it's a wonderful space and place that has been created and it's such a treat it is shared for visitors like us to enjoy!
