Our group ( Faithful 2 Fitness) took a tour of the farm and Andy was was awesome! He was very good with the kids and made the educational part of farming fun for the little ones. We got to make a basil vingarette salad with fresh items from their garden. Before we left we got to shop for items in their gift shop, we picked up some fresh eggs, creamed honey, and some goats milk handsoap. We will definitely be visiting them again!

We just returned from a 3rd grade class trip camping for 3 days at the farm! We do quite a bit of youth group camping between my kids class trips & Cub Scouts and this was hands DOWN the greatest experience! Randy, Andy & Trish went above & beyond for these kids. Teaching through doing they led the kids in gardening, taking care of the farm animals & cooking all of our meals. The kids were delighted in making goats milk ice cream & homemade pizzas in their handmade outdoor Cob Pizza Oven. The children learned all about Cob Houses & the importance of reusing materials to cut back on construction waste. The lettuces & vegetables pulled from the garden were used in our salads & pizzas, eggs pulled from the chicken coop made delicious breakfast the next day. The children spent all day every day playing with goats & pigs & chickens in the most magical setting imaginable. Payton was so great with the kids, she had bounds of energy playing tag & ghost in the graveyard once the sun set. We had bonfires & made s’mores each night & the kids went to sleep happy & overjoyed. I can’t wait to return & I know this will be a trip this class will never forget! Thank you Randy, Andy & Trish!
