At our Weekend Retreats, we welcome you to accommodations in our rustic 1850s farmhouse. You can simply kick back and relax and also connect by helping with the chores. We serve family-style, home-cooked meals using farm-raised products and local products as much as possible.
Register now by calling or emailing us – $150 includes meals and lodging – to attend during the day only, please talk to us.

Rental wheels available – more information about our beginner-friendly Louet wheels here. You can do this! Questions: call 212-4058 or send us an email!
Weaving: The loom is in the Tesseract with materials for weaving a sampler. You are invited to come see our progress and try your hand at weaving a bit. We’re meeting twice a month, 2nd and 4th Thursdays. Talk to us about a time to help you dress your loom. Next gathering will be June 28, 10am – 2pm, Pot Luck. If you have a portable loom bring it along. If not, try one of ours.
