Events and Celebrations
May through October
The downstairs of our 1779 farmhouse and upper barn with a finished floor are available for rent for day-use gatherings. Complete with hiking trails, scenic waterfall, excellent bird-watching in the wetlands, and sacred sites in the woods, we offer a low-key environment for everything from kids camps to board brainstorms to spiritual retreats, even the occasional wedding if you can handle the perpetually noisy ducks! Fell free to give us a ring to come and visit to see if our site may be right for you.

Our Winter Raw Milk CSA Runs Oct 1st-April 1st. Contact us to get on our waitlist. You choose your pick-up day and amount of milk in half gallon increments. If the CSA sounds like a good choice for you please give us a ring or drop us an email for more information.
We are not certified organic, but our management involves a (cow-sized) dash of local grain as a parlor treat, and our cows are pastured and rotationally grazed, and fed a wealth of rich hay in the winter. We're milking just a half a dozen brown cows, mostly jerseys, this season, with really quality butterfat and protein-filled milk for fresh drinking, cheese, yogurt, and butter-making. We hand bottle into half-gallon, returnable glass jars. We also have milk for sale as available, self-serve, in our farm refrigerator. This is clean, wholesome, local raw milk, that is getting lovely customer taste reviews. Hope to see you!
