Lodging.  Lodging options listed for this weekend are in both shared and private options at the Tops'l Farmhouse, Farm Cottage, Woodland Cabins and Cider House (located 1.5 miles down the road from Tops'l Farm).

Please review the different options in our pricing page and choose which one might be best for you! Some are private rooms (just you), some are "private shared" (you and someone you know) and some are simply shared just like summer camp! Please reach out if you have any questions on these lodging types.

-Food.   All meals and snacks included. A focus on simple, nourishing meals with seasonal ingredients. Breakfast and lunch will be casual offerings that you can enjoy in a group setting or take to eat quietly somewhere on the farm.  Dinners will be in our event barn space & shared family style.

If you have dietary restrictions please let us know in the notes section on checkout and we will do our best to accommodate. 

- Misc. Alcohol, phone use, etc. We are not enforcing strict rules around these things. Our goal is to help create a space for yourself to truly recharge and reconnect with yourself. We highly encourage you to drop your phone off with us for a period of time. If that brings you severe anxiety, then of course this isn't the right choice for you. Same goes with choosing (or not) to have this time on the farm be spirit-free - we know you will make the best choice for yourself and we will honor that space!

-Cancellation Policy.

Please note that because all retreats on the farm are by design limited to a tiny number of attendees, our cancellation policy is in place to help guests and us alike work together sharing costs that may arise from unexpected cancellations.

HOLD DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. 

Hold deposits ARE transferable to another attendee found and assigned by original attendee.

Cancellation requests submitted within 30 days of retreat date, 50% of total amount (less deposit) will be refunded.

Within 14 days of your retreat: sorry but no refunds given, no exceptions. If you find yourself in this spot, please find someone to gift it to. 

Any refunds allowed will incur a 3% processing fee.

No one books an experience like this with the intention of cancelling it, but unexpected events do occur, so please consider purchasing travel insurance. By booking a spot on our retreat you assume responsibility for reading and understanding our cancellation policies. Exceptions cannot be made for any reason, including weather,  injury/illness, or personal emergencies. No refunds or credits for failure to attend or failure to complete the retreat, or for arriving late or leaving early.

- Some legalese. Many of the experiences at the farm are adventures in the woods and as such require an adventurous spirit and the understanding that they are inherently risky. With that said, please review the following:
