Our farming adventure began in the Spring of 2015 on a 15 acre farm. In 2020 we moved to a 75-acre farm just outside of Woodstock, Ontario. Carl's childhood passion of animal husbandry was given a new purpose when our family made a conscious decision to change the way we related to our food. We began a family quest to eat locally and sustainably. As our little farm grew we developed relationships with our greater community and Greener Pastures was born! As our farming adventure continues, we are loving that each day brings new opportunities for learning. We invite you to join us as we continue to seek greener pastures! While here, be sure to visit the On-Farm Shoppe for fresh eggs, meats, and other great local products.

Heart of the Forest

Perfect fall camping!

Carl and Andrea were lovely and their property was perfect for a fall camping excursion. We stayed on The Heart of the Forest site which was spacious and a short walk to the toilet, the walkway of which was lit perfectly to see in the dark. Their farm shop is a must visit with great smelling goat soap and an array of grass fed meat for you to cook for dinner. We will visit again!

A Nice Surprise!!

I wasn’t sure what to expect as this was my first time using the app and I have never thought of camping on someone’s property. I had called because I booked at the last minute and Andrea was so nice to talk to. Andrea welcomed my friend and I along with her two dogs once we got there and made us feel welcomed. The camp sight was surrounded by trees and was so nice, we had a lot of space. There is a portable washroom that is kept very clean. I would definitely stay here again!

The Fringe

Our stay on Carl and Andrea’s land was wonderful - we can’t recommend it enough! The trees on the campsite offered many options for tent and tarp setup, as well as a bit of privacy from the driveway. There is a picnic table and a fire pit. You will need to bring your own chairs for the campfire. Washroom was very clean and just a short walk away from the campsite. Garbage and recycling bins are located by the washroom. One of the family dogs accompanied us often and was very friendly! We visited the farm shoppe on Saturday to try some local treats and also stocked up on some meats to bring home with us. They do carry sausages and hamburgers in the store, so consider them as an option for your meals while camping! Andrea and Carl’s passion for what they do was very apparent during the farm tour, and it was a great way to become familiar with the property to then explore it on our own. Overall a 10/10 for us! We absolutely loved it and will be back

Heart of the Forest

Lovely Spot; Just Not For Us

The campsite was tidy and well maintained with a fire pit, some Muskoka chairs and a picnic table. Everyone we spoke with was pleasant and welcoming and I loved the company of the farm dogs. We booked for three nights, but stayed only one because I neglected to asked clarifying questions; this was through no fault of the host. I looked at the picture for Heart of the Forest and thought it would be more secluded than it actually was. I also didn’t realize how busy the road would be so the sound of the traffic was fairly constant. These were answers I could have gotten beforehand if I had asked the questions; particularly since my husband and I were looking for a very specific type of environment. I would recommend this site to those who are not necessarily planning to just escape and stay on their campsite for the duration of the duration of their trip, since it really is lovely. It just wasn’t the site for us.

Heart of the Forest

100% an amazing idea for camping!

I cannot express to you how lovely this place is! My gf and I planned to only stay the only night but we stayed an extra and tried the other site!!! Both of them are so beautiful and cozy! They have wonderfully dogs! Brooks and Ruby, who will absoultely steal your heart and your bed (they are the most gracious your guides I've ever had) If you want a chance to stay somewhere quiet and cheap and absolutely gorgeous and fun to walk around! Please please stay here atleast 2 nights! You'll get to expierence the whole farm and the animals! This was probably the best camping expierecne I've had in a long time and I can't wait to come back! The owners are so welcoming and gracious with their land and animals!! Plus we got a little picnic which was ADORABLE!!! 12/10 would stay again !
