  Description

  We are a family of 5 outdoor enthusiasts, our dog Nya and cat Cali on a 15 acre farm in Central lake country Ontario! We focus on growing organic heirloom non GMO seed and produce. We are working towards finishing a small earth ship in our spare time and slowly working towards finishing our basement, and building a small outdoor kitchen for our Geodome.
  We are currently hosting 15 bee hives as well.
  We enjoy culture, art, music, sitting around the campfire and dancing!
  We are a vegetarian household but welcome all.

  Hébergement

  We have one bedroom available in our log House with shared accommodations as well as your own space in the basement where we have a king bed and yoga/activity space. the basement may not be the best option during renovations if you like lots of privacy.
  Our Geo-Dome is also available at times for accommodations.
  You are welcome to the food we grow in our gardens and welcome to camp anywhere on our 15 acres if you require more space.
  
  We ask that our guests cook most of your own meals, as I tend to fast until afternoon and may be out working in the evenings. Id love to enjoying meals together on the weekends and occasionally evenings we are all home together.
  If you don't have a vehicle I am happy to take you for groceries, town is 15mins away.
