Last night we had the distinct pleasure of being guests of Katie & Scott at Valley Pasture Farm in Elk Mound, Wisconsin as a part of the Harvest Hosts program. We are so grateful for the opportunity to renew our annual membership year after year and thus have access to this amazing network of small businesses that agree to let us become new customers and also to stay overnight on their property. This ambitious couple raise goats as lawn mowers and zoo pets, sheep, beef, pork, and chicken for food. In the fall they host a Fall Pumpkin Festival complete with a pumpkin patch, corn maze, petting zoo, and apple cider. Katie and Tank, the family dog, took us on a walking tour of the farm and gave us an opportunity to purchase some of their food products. We’re leaving here this morning with a freezer full of lamb and some great memories.
Cuyahoga Valley National Park
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
A lovely night to get caught up on your amazing travels! Reading along – You have convinced us that Harvest Host is a great way to add fun and beauty to any camping route!
Big hugs from us to you!
