OUR HOME BASE: The OQ Farm

Our home base in Vermont, OQ Farm,  is a 500-acre legacy farm located near the quaint and historic town of Woodstock, voted one of the most beautiful towns in America. This gem of a property, exclusive to our group,  is tucked into the quiet hillside of the green mountains yet minutes away from the action. Quaint cottages placed around the property convey a classic Vermont architectural vernacular. The rustic decor of antiques, hand hewn beams, barn board, and fieldstone fireplace all combine to provide a warm, friendly ambiance; Rolling hills, wall to wall foliage and peacefulness of the landscape say it all!


Built for comfort, with miles of hiking and walking trails, an onsite heated yoga studio, grand bonfire pit tucked into the woods, main house for meals, conversation &  general relaxing in overstuffed couches, you’ll find yourself planning the next visit as soon as you arrive! 


Overview:

This annual 5 day four night green mountain experience combines the quintessential Vermont breath of fresh air, stunning colors of Fall foliage plant based nourishment, movement, hiking through the green mountains, meditation and most of all tons of fun with like minded folks - just when we need it the most! Settle into the season, take in the incredible foliage and fresh air of the mountains, and take time for yourself after a busy summer of doing for everyone else.  Our home base was recently described by Condé Nast Traveler as one of the most beautiful locations in the entire country. We couldn’t agree more!


The Lodging

Whether newly restored hundred year old buildings or a contemporary cabin built in 2021, each unique lodging, intentionally sprinkled through the property conveys a classic Vermont vernacular. The rustic, yet classic decor of antiques, overstuffed crisp comforters,  hand hewn beams, barn board, and fieldstone fireplaces all combine to provide a warm, friendly ambiance you will come to love about Vermont.  

Relax and unwind, feel invigorated after a brisk hike. Enjoy our on-site heated yoga studio, laughter around the bonfire, family style dinners or simply take that nap in an overstuffed couch. Take in the view  and allow the mountains to speak to you! 

Each cottage provides conveniences such as complimentary high-speed wireless Internet, AC, Smart TV’s, washing machines & dryers, full kitchens, private views, on-site parking; private, share & group share rooms available. 


The Food

In collaboration with our favorite Vermont farms, and our own private farm, we are more than excited to source everything we need, as fresh as possible for you on this adventure! Arriving a few days early to gather everything as fresh as possible, feel relaxed in knowing all meals are handmade, fresh, plant based & curated on site by our nationally recognized plant based chef & founder of True North Juice co., Liz is right on site! Outside meal times fresh fruit and snacks will be available, there are also several side kitchens where you may keep/stock your own treats for midnight snacking too! Great restaurants are also plentiful in Woodstock ( 10 minutes away) and Killington ( also 10 minutes away) and we will have a local guide to take the guesswork out of your stay should you want to adventure out and explore! 


Surrounding Area & Travel 

Our home base is situated just 10 minutes west of Woodstock, Vermont. Known for its charm, covered bridges, and the ongoing influence of Laurence Rockefeller. Take a stroll through town to find an array of breweries, eateries, galleries, antiques, boutique shopping, and more. The Woodstock Inn is also home to a world-class spa.

Also within the vicinity of OQ Farm is Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National park, where you can visit historic buildings, go on hikes, and experience breathtaking views.

I came from Australia on my own and felt so welcomed and comfortable by Liz. I had never done pilates or yoga but took to it quite easily and especially enjoyed the pilates that was offered. The food was delicious, fresh and healthy and the vibe of the retreat was so relaxing making it perfect for some much needed downtime in my life. I met so many wonderful people I have continued to stay in contact with and I am already looking forward to another retreat Liz hosts.
