Looking for weekend getaway that inspires? Gather friends or family and head to the Organic Farm School on Whidbey Island for a Friday-Sunday Farm Stay experience! You’ll immerse yourself in the beauty and realities of what it takes to get food from place to plate.
FARM STAYS
Accomodations:
Our four-bedroom, four bath house is just steps away from the farm. You’ll have free reign of a well appointed chef’s kitchen, where you can discover the joy of preparing meals with freshly harvested vegetables. There’s plenty of space in which to stretch out, relax, and reflect on your daytime activities. WI-FI connectivity, air conditioning, wood burning fireplace, ample easy parking, and laundry facilities all serve to keep you comfortable.
Self-Serve Breakfast: Start your day off right with a hearty breakfast featuring farm-fresh ingredients. Enjoy the convenience of our self-serve breakfast bar, allowing you to fuel up at your own pace before embarking on your farm adventures. Of course, if you’d rather you can stir up your own morning meal, taking advantage of farm fresh eggs from our very own on-site Lunar Crest and vegetables.
Community Potluck: We have learned that for beginning farmers to be successful over the long-term, they need to be surrounded by a supportive and understanding community. We work hard to model that here at Organic Farm School, and you can jump right into it by sharing delicious dishes and stories with fellow travelers and local community members at our Farm Friday Community Potluck! Set outside, down at the Farm, you’ll feel the summer evening breeze, listen as day shifts to night, and get a sense of what life on a farm can be like. Note: Potlucks are only during the summer months of July and August at the farm.
Harvest Experience Tour: A Farm Stay isn’t complete without a farm experience! When you arrive, we’ll take you on a walking tour of the full Farm to give you a glimpse of the ecosystems that support the growing of food – you decide what crops you’d like to try cooking with while you’re here. You’ll head back to your accommodations with the food your harvested.
Educational Workshops: Expand your knowledge with engaging workshops led by experienced farmers and educators. From organic gardening tips to sustainable living practices, there’s something for everyone to learn and explore.
Subject to availability.

At Organic Farm School, we are committed to recreating connections between those who grow our food and those who eat it. We believe that only when we better understand what it takes to get food from place to plate can we work for positive changes within our food systems. Our farm stay experience offers a unique opportunity to disconnect from the busy-ness of daily life and reconnect with nature and each other.
Whether you are a seasoned farmer who wants to better understand how we are training new farming professionals or how to build supportive communities, or simply a non-farmer who is curious about where your food comes from and how to more intentionally add it to your family meals, our farm stay has something for everyone. Come join us for an unforgettable experience that will nourish your body, mind, and soul.
