Merrily Farms

Welcome Home

"Just a quick note to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for the wonderful weekend! I am excited and inspired."

• Blackberry Cabin
  Blackberry Cabin, atop a hill surrounded by blackberries, built just this year. Modern facilities made of graying logs to look old. Small enough to be intimate for two. Leather oversized Adirondack chairs, in cognac, perfect for lounging with the Sunday papers or that book you have wanted to read for such a long time. Front porch with forest and meadow views for sippin coffee, "not shaving-doin nothing" mornings [more...]
  
  
• The Farmhouse
  The farm house remains here, stout as ever, rambling front porch (with rocking chairs) overlooking a rolling lawn. Shade provided by huge black walnuts. Pick them in autumn 'til your fingers turn black. Fully restored, shining, white paint in and out...green tin roof where raindrops dance. [more...]
  
  
• Creek Cabin
  The most wonderful studio building you may have ever seen. Pure rough cut hemlock, ceiling walls and floors, still standing at a slant. You feel like you're hiking uphill getting to the kitchen sink. But every person that stayed here insists this is the only place they want when they visit again. [more...]
  
  
• Homer Buffalo Tipis
  These are the authentic thing, until you get inside. Trimmings have been designed by White Man's rules. Comfortable bed set atop bales of straw. With a 16 foot diameter, even the tallest chief can stand easy. Meditators report a special deepness and calm when they meditate within these rounded walls. [more...]
  
  
• Fern Cabin
  Primitive cabin...10 foot by twenty...hidden deep in the woods at Fern Meadow. Built between two cherry trees with tin roof so you can pray for rain. Fat pot bellied stove with blue enamel coffee pot and four matching cups. Very romantic four poster, gauze draped, king size bed, puffy quilts, oil lamps, crackling fire. [more...]

• Johnny Appleseed Cottage
  Just tell me this, what would have happened if Johnny Appleseed had stumbled onto a labyrinth in his quests? We have lots of really old apple trees here on the farm and I often picture Johnny Appleseed working his way through these mountains so long ago. He might have even planted some of our trees. But this raises some interesting questions [more...]
  
  
• Perpetual Motion Machine
  Timing is everything. I recently discovered this while solving a huge problem. Merrily Farms has over 250 acres. Much of the farm is in meadow and in the spring the grass grows like wildfire. We spend more time and money on mowing than I would like. In past years we mitigated this by allowing our neighbor to graze his cows in the upper fields. Then he sold them off. Darn! We weren't displeased though, as cows do quite a bit of environmental damage and after building our ponds, we knew we could not continue with them [more...]
