You may even get a chance to meet our animals, feed them, or learn about our sustainable farming practices.

    Outdoor Adventures:
    Explore 70 acres of beautiful, forested land with tranquil trails that wind through the woods and beside a serene spring-fed pond. Hike, birdwatch, or just enjoy the peaceful surroundings. After a day of exploring, relax in the traditional Finnish-style sauna, nestled beside the pond—perfect for unwinding after a day in nature.

    The Campfire & Relaxation:
    As the evening draws in, gather around the campfire pit for a cozy, starry-night experience. Roast marshmallows, enjoy good company, and take in the calming atmosphere of the farm. The night skies here are stunning, offering a perfect backdrop for some star-gazing.
