  Description

  * About Us *
  
  I've been involved in the gardening/food-growing world for 20+ years and am happy to share what I've learned. I also have a website where I teach people how to grow their own organic, nutrient-dense food.
  
  My partner is originally from Mexico and she gets high-quality cacao beans directly from organic farmers there. She roasts the beans and makes drinking chocolate "elixirs," which she sells online and in cafes.
  
  We live here with our 4-year-old daughters, who are identical twins. We're fairly busy with work and the kids, so we don't have all that much time to socialize, which means a stay at our place is best for people who are happy spending some time by themselves.
  
  Feel free to ask us any questions you have.
  
  
  * Accommodation *
  
  I go to Toronto every other week (usually Sundays), so I could pick you up there (and drop you back off on another Sunday).
  
  Your stay will be outdoors in a nice canvas tent with a mattress and bedding.
  
  You can spread out your work hours however you like.
  
  Wifi is open whenever you need it.
  
  
  * Our Property *
  
  We moved to this quiet property on the Bruce Peninsula in 2021.
  
  We're directly on the Bruce Trail, surrounded by a magical forest and just a short, 3-minute walk to a breathtaking cliff-top view of Georgian Bay (it's a 1-hour hike down to the rocky shoreline).
  
  We're in Purple Valley, between Wiarton & Lion’s Head.

  We try to head to the beach for a few hours once a week, but mostly, we spend our time at home, drinking coffee and hot chocolate and enjoying the view :)

  Hébergement

  For now, we only have camping available. It's a great property for camping! We'll give you a tent with a mattress and bedding or you can use your own tent/vehicle.
  
  As for food, we can eat all meals together or you can eat some meals on your own - whatever is best for you. We're happy to accommodate dietary requirements.

  Autres infos...

  We are very rural, so the main activities around here are hiking, relaxing in nature, meditating, and reading a lot of books!
  
  There's no public transportation, but we drive to town a couple of times a week. And Phil drives to Toronto every other Sunday, so he can pick you up and drop you off in Toronto or at Pearson Airport or anywhere else nearby.
