Come enjoy the natural beauty of a working farm! In our transition to agroforestry, wetland restoration and perennial ag, you'll find some great spaces to walk your dog, let your children run and learn about ecological conservation. The farm is also home to a flower cutting garden, a food forest garden, and a folk school. Guests are welcome to cut flowers for a donation, and enjoy the sheep, chickens and resident cat. The setting is also great for taking in sunrises, sunsets and star gazing. Come explore the landscape, book a farm tour or enjoy some studio space at Land Alliance Folk School.

The place is beautiful, and Anna and Dave are great hosts -- very responsive to questions and requests. We have camped here three times and are planning on coming back in 2025, too.

Garden Shed Farm Stay
Perfect weekend
A great weekend getaway on a peaceful farm. The communal kitchen was so nice to have, the flowers around the shed were pretty, walks around by the sheep were fun, and the farm cat was friendly. All the camping fun with some nice added comforts.

Garden Shed Farm Stay
Peace & Quiet
A true farm setting in amid beautiful corn fields. We stayed in the Shed as we have two times before. The Shed was a comfortable place to set up our sleeping bags. We travel with a couple of tent options and since we were spending only night, we set up our two-person backpacking tent in the Shed to ward off the mosquitoes. Anna and Dave are wonderful hosts and gave us plenty of privacy. Restrooms and showers were close by. We keep returning here for for the peace and quiet. Staying here is pure relaxation. You just want to hang out and soak up the serenity. We will return.

Garden Shed Farm Stay
A Wonderful Farm Stay!
Anna's property and the garden shed was the perfect place for our family to stay while exploring the area. They have turned their property into a fun experience for travelers to explore and have a unique stay. We slept wonderfully in the garden sheds with our cots and blow up mattresses and awoke to a beautiful farm morning. The kids loved playing with the cat and checking out the sheep and cattle.

Calm
This is a beautiful working farm close to Iowa City, yet in a very peaceful, quiet area. We enjoyed waking up to the bleating of the sheep. There is a friendly cat, and the hosts are very welcoming. Will definitely stay here again! The indoor hot shower was also much appreciated after days on the road in our van!
