Come check out our little farm experience with a few farm animals. We do morning chores so ask about our experience were you can do the chores with us. Please let us know in advance if you are interested in this. We milk a cow, bottle feed her foster calf, feed and water the goat, horses, a pony, cats, chickens, and collect the eggs. There is also a little dirty work with cleaning out their living quarters. We also have an Angus beef herd where we feed the calves every day. We do offer horse riding lessons, trail rides, or rides around the yard.
We live close by and can help with anything you may need during your stay just let us know. Feel free to call, text, or message through Airbnb. We can offer very minimal interaction to a full night story time by the fire pit.
We want every guest to enjoy their time while staying at our Airbnb. We know that some people will enjoy different farm activities and others may already have a full schedule with family, friends or events in the area. In order to respect your time and ours, we ask that you let us know if you’d like to help with morning chores and any additional activities. We farm for a living, so depending on the season we will have more or less time to spend with guests. For example, if we know ahead of time that you’d like to ride horse, it makes it easier for us to plan for that.
