Enjoy walking trails, abundant wildlife, and meet our goats, pigs, and chickens! Newest litter of piglets born 8/20/25! On homestead hatched chicks being born too. We’d love to show you around our homestead. We practice organic practices and like to see ourselves as homesteaders who use what we have to improve the land. Features include a fully stocked retro kitchen, comfy beds, hot/cold mini split, on demand hot water, outdoor deck, and eco-friendly compost toilet. Down a quiet dirt road yet close to downtown, UF, breweries, and nearby springs.
