Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Joe
Joe grew up on a farm in Indiana and Christy on San Juan Island. We are passionate about protecting farmland for organic agricultural use by small farmers. So October Farm is a special opportunity to share this experience with our friends and pass these values down to our children.
Why they chose this property
October Farm provides a peaceful and private retreat for our friends and family. We offer occasional rentals to help offset the cost of maintenance and upkeep of farm buildings, fencing and equipment.
What makes this property unique
This is a working farm hosting the Island Haven Animal Sanctuary, home to horses, cows, alpacas, llamas, goats, wild farm cats, chickens and turkeys. Island Haven is a volunteer run Animal Sanctuary. Their mission is to provide lifetime care and sheltering for farm animals and equines who, while still able to lead a quality life, are unable to find homes due to old age, chronic illness, handicaps, temperament issues or other factors, or who have been rescued from neglect and/or abuse situations and require rehabilitation.
