Description
Welcome, Under the Hoof is a 28 acre farm. After 2 years of wandering in both our B and A class RVs plus a year in Mexico, we decided to settle in for a while. When we traveled we stayed at HarvestHost.com locations all over the country and we are now excited about having the opportunity to be hosts.
Today, we have goats, chickens, dogs, and gopher tortoises. We are a Stewardship Forest, a Certified Tree Farm, and a designated gopher tortoise habitat We have a new shop, a bunkhouse & bath, our animals, and a good start on clearing the 25 acres of overgrown timberland to be used in the future as silvopasture.
Our shop is an active woodworking shop complete with a finishing room. We make small gift items (sold in art studios) and custom furniture. Our goats are all does, we will breed them in the fall (2022 - done) so the kidding season will begin in April/May 2023. Our chickens (14) just eat, make noise and lay eggs.
On any given day we have lots going on. Morning chores, forest clearing (campsite prep), work going on in the shop. Merle teaches water aerobics most mornings and can always bring a guest. We spent time with the animals every day so most are very friendly and evening chores give you a great time to visit with them.
We are a working farm and Stewardship Forest. Chores happen every day. Goats are let out of the barn at 7:00 am (goat noise possible). Chickens are also up early (chicken sound likely) Aminals will be animals so during breeding (Nov./Dec) and kidding season (April/May) you may see nature being nature.
Guests can purchase work from our shop, eggs from the girls, and other various amenities (shower, electricity, water. NO WASTE DUMP.
