At the farm there are plenty of opportunities to socialize over communal meals, or in our dedicated volunteer lounge or while working. This beautiful environment also offers plenty of chances for bush and lake walks and quiet reflection. Our community is enriched by its diversity of people from different journeys and we appreciate everyone’s uniqueness. The farm’s secret formula is love.
