Wild Orchid Farm
Welcome!
Your stay here will often start with the rooster announcing the start of the day. Chickens free-range around the barn yard and lawns while cows spend their days in the fields. Alpine Dairy goats will be grazing nearby your AirBnB and later in the summer months hay will be made in the adjacent fields.
A farm stay with one bed one bath.

What I Offer
Country Life
Welcome to a slower pace of life; one that allows you the opportunity to relax and just simply be. Take a deep breath and let it out slowly, as you take in the sounds of our farm and the view of the adjacent hills.
Farming Atmosphere
There is a real sense of community here; one of belonging and where family and friends can work together and help one another out. At our farm you will arrive as a traveller…but in the way of the Maritimes, you often leave as a friend.
Privacy & Freedom
We respect your desire for privacy. The farmhouse loft is set apart from our main home. However, we are more than happy to share our farm with you. Just let us know if you want to visit the goats.

Hello
I’m Ashley
Life truly is a journey. I have been a lighthouse keeper, a registered nurse for 35 years and now I am an intentional farmer…my passion is all things goats. I am living proof that it is never too late to chase a new dream.
