Project Educational Tour
If you'd like to bring your community, extension, 4-H, FFA, etc. group to the farm to experience and learn more about a particular project at the farm, contact us today and we'll work something out. We want to be part of helping others learn about healthy, regenerative, sustainable farming practices. For a list of our current projects, see our Projects Page. Some project examples are pond life, plant life, regenerative farming practices, riparian area planning and planting.
Tea Party
We have been collecting Tea Pots and Cups & Saucers from across the country and Table linens from around the world!
Beginning in 2025, we will be ready to host individual, small group and even large numbers for Tea.
We are working on our garden path, the tea and food menu, and getting ready to set up the eclectic set of tables and chairs.
We are excited to begin with casual Tea and work toward a High Tea Event.
If you are interested and are willing to be one of the first for Tea in the Garden, please let us know!

Upcycled Yard Art
We have a local artist who can teach us how to use Tea Cups & Saucers and Tea Pots!
Enjoy creating Garden Art from 'Stuff' that adds shine & color to your garden. This kind of art can attract hummingbirds, song birds, pollinators, and can be cleverly designed to blend in with its surroundings and bring out the background. This versatility means garden art is the perfect way to jazz up your landscape. Placing works of art in gardens highlights the beauty of surrounding plants and flowers.

Mushroom Foraging
Owego, NY (13827) is in Tioga County, part of New York’s Southern Tier, with a climate characterized by cold winters (USDA Hardiness Zone 5b) and warm, humid summers. The region features mixed hardwood forests (oak, maple, beech) and some coniferous areas, ideal for forest-based mushroom cultivation. We have the space and plan to begin forest based cultivation! Last summer we found several types. We have a friend of The Bub who is teaching us! We are preparing by engaging spawn suppliers! Some of the mushroom types we have discovered include Shitake, Oyster, Wine Cap, Lion's Mane and Maitake.

Your curiosity and experience are welcome as we all expand our knowledge of the Guiding Principles:
This involves reducing or eliminating tillage, which can disrupt soil structure, damage beneficial microbes, and release stored carbon.
Keeping the soil covered with vegetation or organic matter protects it from erosion, helps retain moisture, and enriches the soil with nutrients.
Regenerative agriculture promotes a wide variety of plant and animal species, including cover crops, diverse crop rotations, and integrating livestock, which enhances soil health and ecosystem resilience.
Having plants with living roots in the soil year-round helps to build soil structure, improve water infiltration, and enhance nutrient cycling.
