TOURS

Wagon Tours Return on Saturday September 17 and November 12, 19, 26.  In the Wagon tour we give a one hour presentation about the different aspects of our farm and how our practices benefits the environment and people’s health.  The vocabulary we use is geared for 14 years and older. Children are welcome to tag along and see the animals and scenery.

Permaculture Basics Make Reservation

This tour requires a reservation. Explore the ethics and design principles behind the permaculture movement while looking at some very practical examples of permaculture in action on our farm. Perhaps the Ellicott City flood wouldn’t have occurred if more attention was paid to permaculture principles.

Water: Then and Now Make Reservation

This tour requires a reservation. Learn how the old spring house on the property was dug. If you dare, reach into the old spring head. Measure the temperature of the spring house pool. Learn how the marble formation below the farm was created and why the aquifer produces great water. Visit the ice house and learn how ice was stored on the farm before refrigeration. Finish the journey off with a refreshing bottle of Brickhouse Water — from the same aquifer.
