We are an off grid hobby farm located in a wilderness area alongside the Green Swamp Wildlife Management area. We are working on a number of projects including planting grass, and clearing native landscape for fencing and pastures. There is also an ongoing effort to develop a rest area for users of the Van Fleet trail where they can shelter and enjoy viewing our poultry palace.
We also have quite. A few farm animals to care for and expand the facilities for them on site this requires often strenuous work under tough conditions. Our guest accomodations are very modest and not much above camping although we do have tents and hammocks as well.
You cannot get to to the farm easily in a motor vehicle unless it is 4x4 we are located alongside a bicycle trail deep in the Florida woods 15 miles away from the nearest city and 3 miles away from any neighbors.
There is very little light noise or air pollution out here and during certain periods there are hordes of aggressive biting insects this helps keep the non committal folks far away we cherish the solitude and tranquility of the GREEN SWAMP
Soon the forest will be alive with amphibians and reptiles a truly wonderful time to experience the area
There is poor cell service out here and certainly no wifi.
There is currently a fence line site prep going on it is hard dirty work, there are some opportunities for painting statuary for the artistically gifted.
