I learned a lot about the history of their property, their regenerative agricultural efforts and worked on horsemanship skills. Chrissy is incredible with her animals and a great teacher. Dining with everyone and getting to know the other guests and staff was so much fun. I really found some new family members and am so excited to go back. So many of their guests return as volunteers and helpers and I will certainly be another one. That should tell you all you need to know about the owners and how wonderful this place is. See you all there again soon!

In the back there is a massive freezer of meats, and another freezer full of seafood items. They also had a large selection of pantry items and specialty canned goods and condiments.

We went last Saturday morning and there really isn't anything going on and we were the only customers there. They stopped doing the guided tours earlier this year, I believe? We went into the 'store' and looked around for a bit and then went to the dairy building and nothing was going on. (I understand it was on a Saturday but still.) But we were able to walk around and say hi to the goats. Again, there wasn't anything to really do so not sure if I'd return if I'm ever in the area again.

The atmosphere and history of construction is wonderful. They have put a lot of time in on the design, using geothermal heating for the botanic gardens, warming the ponds and paths as well.

Ended up sitting at a table on the stage and playing cards for a bit, super fun. Love all their merch too - although we love to buy tin tackers from our favorite breweries and $33 is a little steep for theirs ;) Great local hangout spot! Hop passport - tin trackers
