We are a working permaculture farm community that thrives on diversity, beauty, health, and resilience. We have created a conscious farm and forest ecosystem to host people, friends, family, and biodiversity. We have crafted a homestead towards productivity, resource abundance, water harvesting, social capital, and craftsmanship. We manage our landscapes and gardens for aesthetics, supreme health, smart design elements, ease of use, and maximum function. Tiny house building is our newest long-term endeavor. Nursery cultivation is another element we are excited about and committed to. Hosting gatherings and ceremonies is another priority for our collective community. We have high work ethics and aspirations and aim to create an epic scene for all to enjoy.A flat parking area for rvs and a landscape to hangout next to your rig. A large pad is available. Please back in or pull in on the grass area just upslope of the gravel parking pad. Parking at a 45* angle to the drive way is ideal, and affords lots of space and privacy. A landscaped parking area with heaps of space and adjacent to the firepit hang out zone. We are the first property on the driveway. Please drive up the steep drive way to the parking area. Do not continue to the second property above us. When you have reached the gravel parking area with a sign and a meadow on your right you have arrived. The parking area is near our property line adjacent to the large meadow. My neighbor has boats and materials staged in the meadow. This is the junk that some campers have referenced. Its minimal and nonobtrusive. The campsite is next to the septic system that exists for the store now closed down on the 101. Because the store is closed there is no use of the septic. Additionally the large rock bed that is visible and near by is a switch yard and contains no effluent.

The host was incredibly friendly and promptly assisted us with setting up and starting the fire, making our stay very enjoyable. This place is a hidden gem, featuring many ongoing and completed projects. Additionally, it is conveniently close to various amenities.

Not ready for campers

Tent · With kids

The camp wasn't ready for campers yet. The campsite was overgrown with bramble and stinging nettles and the furniture pictured was falling apart. Fortunately the campsite managers friends were there and let us camp in the driveway in front of the owners yurt and next to the communal fire pit. This campsite is also directly above a busy road and the traffic can be heard all night long.
