Just as described - private with spotless porta potty
Wish I had more time to explore the farm but I needed to get on the road
the absolutely wonderful breakfast of farm raised eggs, homemade goat cheese & greens with seed bread, coffee & fresh goat milk was one of the absolute best breakfasts I’ve had in a long time. Thanks so much to Tara for making me feel welcome
I’m about to have a big salad for dinner!

Nice place, lots of shade trees. We visited the goats, sheep, chickens & turkeys. Reminded us of our home in Montana. Missing the great acts and chickens.

Cute farm site
Loved my quick trip to Shady Grove! Wonderful hosts Tara & Nate greeted me upon arrival. Beautiful spot under lovely trees on this working farm. Turkeys, goats, chickens, nearby horses & loads of amazing stuff growing! What a gem! 💎
Stayed in a rented campervan & appreciated the clean porta potty on site. Was out early & didn’t get to say farewell & thanks for a great stay!

Safe, beautiful, and educational
I visited Tara and Nate's land because I wanted to learn more about goats. Tara was nice enough to let me sit in the guest seat and ask a whole bunch of questions while she milked several does. I can't thank her enough for her patience.
Turkeys and chickens roam the land during the day and come and greet you every so often. There is also a delightful old cat named Egypt.
The farm hosts volunteers who work while learning how to create sustainable and natural farms. They were inspiring. Visitors can camp in the yard near them or set up a bit away.
The farm is at the end of a long driveway behind a neighborhood. Be sure to follow Tara's instructions. to get there.
It was a lovely experience.

Amazing Real Farm Experience!
Tara's farm is incredible! I have stayed at a number of farms through the years and this one is a cut above. When we arrived we greeted by Tara and her husband. Unfortunately, they had to head out but one of their local volunteer farm hands picked up the greeting ball and offered us a full farm tour! My 5 and 7 year old, got to touch a turkey, feed the goats and even collect chicken eggs! The farm hand talked to them about sustainable agriculture and showed us the greenhouse where he let my kids each pick one strawberry! When the daylight started to set, the incredible shaded area throughout the camp area cooled the temps (even though it was a 100 deg day) enough to feel comfortable around a campfire.....which the farm hands built and started! Nate, Tara's husband, got the ambient garden lights above our head turned on and it felt like something out of a magazine catalogue! In the morning we bought a bag of fresh greens, eggs and a cabbage and we headed off. This wasn't just camping, this was an experience! I would highly recommend it to anyone! The only negative of the whole experience is there is traffic noise. However, the serene nature landscape you are in, cool temperatures, and amazing farm experience dwarf any negative effects the noise has (and when we got in our tent....I couldn't even hear it). Highly recommend! We plan on going again in a few weeks : )
