Quick question: what sketchy things do YOU do? With tractor or without? 🤣🤣

I can’t promise the sheep will always be pasture

I can’t promise the sheep will always be pastures near either of our farmstay locations, but it’s a front-row seat when they are!

Drop a 🐑 if you’d enjoy this!

Mary the ewe had a swollen nose the other day, so I figured we had a nest around. Found it today when I was picking up fence. What knocked me out was the size—I didn’t have a clue we had 24” nest right in the pasture! I did NOT approach to show a comparison. 🤣🤣

I really do love hosting farmstays, and it shows. Some people (especially those with kids) ask lots of questions and follow around for sheep moves (and carrot snacks), but most just visit us to REST. Or celebrate a special date, or just BE.

We offer a pretty flexible set of options, and that seems to be a good fit for our guests (and us). We even stock the yurt with some basics so that guests don’t have to leave if the weather turns funky, or they just don’t feel like going out. We’ve had a lot of guests book the weekend with grand plans to hike and do activities…and then simply decide not to go anywhere at all.

OK, rereading the sentence above, it seems like guests never have to leave—they do (sorry! 😜)—but we want them to feel like they can choose to stay in their yurt cocoon as much as they’d like DURING their stay. 🤣🤣

We’re glad people are listening to their bodies when those bodies say NOPE—I’m sleeping in! This is what we’re all about. ❤️

Have you stayed in a yurt? What was your experience like?

Who would have expected? 🐽🏆

Now, if you zoo

One of my very favorite things in the world—from

One of my very favorite things in the world—from the time I was little—has been the Tunbridge World’s Fair. It’s a wonderful fair with just the right amount of rides and midway, and lots of real agricultural exhibits and animals. One of the most wonderful pieces in recent years has been the introduction of the Swine Show, stewarded by my friends the Whalens.

Matt and Michelle Whalen emcee, gather sponsors and prizes, keep records, and take piglets right out to the audience to answer questions. Matt’s dad Mickey (in red suspenders) has taught me something new about animals or farming literally every time I’ve seen him (the man is a WEALTH of information…). I just adore this whole family SO much.

After a few years of not seeing each other, we’ve reconnected, and Matt convinced me to participate in the swine obstacle course. I had never done this, or even seen it. 😜 After a thirty-second orientation on the goals and the scoring (and Mickey’s recommendation of the best pig to use), I found myself in the ring doing a timed course running a March/April gilt through a tunnel, over a ramp, into a selfie booth, and even through a slalom!

Funniest thing…I tied for first place in the qualifier, got second in the coin toss, and am headed to the finals tomorrow.

Once again, the Whalens—true ambassadors of the swine world—have pulled me in to something special. No matter how tomorrow goes, I know it will be swine-filled fun. 🐖🐖🐖

PS And that 150th World’s Fair ribbon looks pretty freaking sweet, I won’t lie…😜

What we do every day (and feels kind of boring to farmers and ranchers) is exciting and interesting to other folks. That’s why I love hosting guests—they look with new eyes on all the things I take for granted!

Welcoming families to relax at the farm is one of

Welcoming families to relax at the farm is one of the most wonderful things! In my experience, most are not looking for tours or to get underfoot. They just want to live and rest and sleep. And draw and walk and give sheep carrots. ❤️

I didn’t get a chance last week to mention that

I didn’t get a chance last week to mention that we had the coolest visitation in our #tentrr site.

John Heard is an agronomist from Manitoba, Canada with one of the neatest hobbies I’ve ever heard of. He’s been collecting official state soils from around the US for years. First, he determines what type of soil the Official State Soil is, then he starts emailing folks in that state who might know where he can find a sample.

Whenever he can, he stays on or near the host farm. He cores the soil, shows the layers, takes a picture of the soil and host (rather, his supportive wife Mary does—thanks Mary!), and puts the soil back in its hole.

John collected Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont soils this time, raising his total to 45! In case you’re wondering, the official Vermont State Soil is Tunbridge. 😜

What does he do with these? He prints a map with the state soil description, state map, pictures of the host, and posts it on his office wall. He showed me pictures—they are great! I will be honored to have a place on the wall.

#grateful to meet such interesting people by hosting!

I think we should all have the ability to concessionize our farm views—if that’s what works for us! Farms and ranches can be incredible places to host the public, who just want to experience a little of the peace and tranquility we take for granted.

Interested in checking out whether this is a good fit? Wondering what your time commitment or income benefits might be?
