Helpful things to know
for your time at Mary’s Farm and Sanctuary and Blossoming at the Farm
We want your experience here to be a meaningful one, so that you can experience the positive and calming experience of the Sanctuary.
Please read and respect the following guidelines while you are here with us:
- We honour the sacred web of life. This includes the tiniest insect to the majestic trees. Please be mindful of your impact on the land and the animals while you are visiting. This translates simply into the guiding principle of “Do No Harm.”
- Please be mindful that the driveway is often populated with children, dogs, goats, and llamas. Slow and aware navigation of our vehicles is a way we can all help keep everyone safe.
- The traffic to and from the farm is unpredictable. If you know you are coming this way during peak traffic hours, or during construction, consider using the back way through Millstream.
- Due to the sensitive nature of our work, all visits are appointment only.
- When you arrive for your appointment, please check in at the office.
