Our family, friends and I may be on premise and sharing outdoor spaces occasionally.

During summer months every Thursday there will be a summer camp kids field trip from 10 am to 3 pm outdoors utilizing the playground, sand volleyball court and outdoor spaces.

And if you choose to bring a pet, we are so excited to host your furry friend as well! A few things to remember for your pet's visit:
-Please keep your pet(s) leashed when in view of the farm animals. Even a doggy simply wanting to play could spook the animals and cause injury.
-We have a wonderful livestock guardian dog who calls the property home. Bailey is a big beautiful Italian Maremma and she has a very special job keeping all of her animal friends safe. A few things to know about Bailey:
1. She is contained by an invisible fence. A map of her area is provided.
2. Bailey LOVES to meet new people. She also occasionally loves to meet new doggy friends HOWEVER please keep your dog leashed and by the perimeter of the invisible fence if you choose to introduce your dog to Bailey. When in doubt it is always best to keep your pet out of Bailey's zone. Please remember you are responsible for your pet when inside the fence zone and for any accidents that may occur.
-When not in view of the livestock feel free to let your dog off leash!
-And of course please remember to pick up after your pet(s).
If you have any questions at all please don't hesitate to ask! We look forward mto hosting your furry friends!
