We saw the need to be a part of the local food movement by purchasing land and bringing the land back to a state that was better than how we found it via permaculture practices. The land consists of: 9acres of forest, pastures, two ponds, orchards, hoop house, tropical greenhouse, relocated English threshing barn from 1850, market gardens, chickens,guineas, goats ( 2018), bees, stocked pond, extensive fencing, walk-in cooler, cellar, permaculture design layout, on site farm market on Sundays 11-6. Learn more about this land: Can host a few camp sites, three , one would be secluded close to pond. No formal trails. There is one electric hookup 220v, hydrant for potable water.    Rural area, farming area, great road to ride bikes on. Seven miles to Indiana University and vibrant downtown area, many ethnic restaurants, art, theatre.

Communication was nonexistent. Was unable to travel due to a medical emergency and they would not respond to my message.

Our hosts were not only fantastic hosts, but genuinely wonderful people. They graciously welcomed us into the farm and ensured we had a marvelous stay. The farms mission is noble and in addition to the great camping, existing with the animals and in the environment they foster really contributed to an idealistic adventure. After our first stay here, we will absolutely be making a point to routinely return, and recommend you do too!

We really loved staying at Sobremesa for the eclipse. It is such a beautiful farm, and Juan and Robert were gracious hosts. We loved seeing all of the animals and exploring the lovely farm. Would definitely come back again.

Beautiful Permaculture Farm
Juan and Robert are wonderful hosts and their farm is beautifully maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to meet them, their friendly team of helpers, the animals, and the land. Juan had many great recommendations for places to check out in the area during our visit. We stayed in site #2 (next to the red barn) for three nights at the beginning of September and enjoyed all of it. It was private and peaceful, but still close enough to town that we could easily visit and explore the area. We loved listening to the symphony of the cicadas and frogs at this time of year, as well as the roosters, chickens, guineafowl, and ducks. The outdoor shower is very nice and the composting toilet is clean and easy to use. We would love to visit again. Highly recommended.

Awesome outdoor hot shower!
Juan’s Sobre Mesa is a very beautiful organic farm. Staying there was a fantastic experience as we enjoyed the beauty of the land, the peacefulness and the lovely hosts. We had a wonderful night’s rest and left with a bushel full of produce from their farmers market stand.

Great Hosts. Distance was correctly stated but traveling time on small back roads does add more driving time. All information posted by the hosts is correctly stated.
