Our secluded getaway is 30 miles from Timberline on Mt. Hood and 30 miles to the center of Portland, and just a couple of minutes off the main thoroughfare (Hwy 26) that connects the two.
Hide away from the bustle of the modern world, or use us as home-base for travels to the city, the coast, the Cascades, and the Gorge. While you're here, enjoy nature, farm food, animals, and yourself.
Our farm consists of 12 acres of garden, food forest, and silvopasture systems; 20 acres of regenerating forest, pond and wetland ecosystems for wildlife and native plants and animals; and 7 acres of farm buildings and infrastructure. Our approach to raising food and stewarding our lands focuses on building ecological resilience and diversity, and seek reciprocity in our relationship to the earth and our community.
We have seven private tent campsites hidden in the forest but easily accessible by flat walking trails. Each camp oasis includes a level wood-chip pad for one tent, redwood stools and tables, and languid moments of absolute refuge and quiet (unless our livestock guardian dog hears a nighttime prowler - in which case, you'll hear some protective barking). Plenty of large trees perfect for stringing a hammock surround every camp pad. And every site is a short walk from a central camp amenities station with a toilet, hot water showers and wash sinks. One of our sites (#7) is equipped with a vintage canvas tent; just bring your own bedding and essentials and save yourself the effort of setting up and taking down a tent!
You're welcome to walk the 2+ miles of farm trails and paths, check in on the animals, survey the farm pond, and find a spot for a forest bath or rest. Please stay out of farm buildings, avoid walking off of the well-trod trails and paths, refrain from harvesting or eating from the forest or farm, and close all gates after you pass through them (even if you found them open for some reason)!
Because of fire hazards, we cannot have camp fires between May 1 and December 1.
Please pack out all of your trash and leave your campsite as tidy as (or better than!) you found it.
Pets are not allowed because of food and farm animal safety.
