The Ideal Place to Relax and Get Away From It All

Who We Are

Jordan River Farm has been farmed since at least 1905 and has been chemical free since 1971. We were one of the first six farms in the state to be officially certified organic in 1988, and are in permanent scenic easement. We are now a nature center.
We offer an ideal site for many seminars and educational activities. Over the years, we have had many public, private, parochial and homeschooling groups here of all ages, from toddlers to teens, and have even had student
groups from Japan.

Miriam's House, which is the 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom main farm house pictured here is also available as a vacation rental (see VRBO.com/183988) If you will be staying on the farm, there are many fine restaurants, wineries and riding events nearby:

Jordan River Farm

Special Projects - Schools: We need an inventory of the flora and fauna on the farm as well as a history of the farm prior to 1905, and are willing to offer free visits to the farm in exchange. If your students need a practical activity for botany studies, or would like to research the county records, this is it. See Cory for details.

OUR OFF – GRID

House Tours and Seminars
Jordan River Farm

Our off-grid cottage has been up and running since November of 2006 and lived in full time since April of 2007. If you or your group are interested in learning about alternative energy, schedule a tour or workshop. Can I go off the grid? How much does it cost? What system should I use and who can install it? These are some of the questions that are answered. Tour and workshop fees will depend on the number of people and scope of the material covered. Call for a quote.
