The Hundred Acre Farm at Farmhouse Inn offers a secluded sanctuary of gardens, orchards, and beautiful scenery, along with the first certified Forest Therapy Trail in the United States!
Forest therapy may be a new concept to some, but its benefits are evident to all. Be it physical, mental, or emotional improvement, the goal of forest therapy is to center participants in the most vibrant forms of wellness and healing, all while engaging in low-intensity activity and soaking in the beauty that nature has to offer. Forest therapy is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, which translates to “forest bathing.”
At Hundred Acre Farm, the Forest Therapy Trail is available to all adults and older teens. For $5 per person (a fee that is waived for Farmhouse Inn guests), visitors can enjoy the serenity of a steady, self-guided walk down gorgeous trails as they connect with their surroundings. Walk for an hour or walk for four – enjoy the experience for as long as you choose.
