Spring farm stays

What does a farm stay at
Juneberry Ridge look like?

Arrive ready to regenerate on Friday and leave recharged on Sunday.

Come to reconnect with nature and healthier foods, direct from the source. A farm stay at Juneberry Ridge offers more than your typical weekend getaway, it’s about finding new connections with nature and the land that feeds us.

We designed our all-inclusive farm stays for single or double occupancy in our one-bed cabins as well as groups of three to six in our beautifully attended three-bed cabins.  

Let us do all the planning so you can do the relaxing.

Discover our regenerative farm.

Juneberry Ridge is a 750 acre regenerative farm located in Norwood, N.C. a one hour drive east of Charlotte or about two hours west of Raleigh.

When you stay with us, you’re choosing a retreat that’s working with nature in restorative ways. Our farmers grow foods for nutrition and healthful outcomes, and we do so without herbacides, pesticides, hormones, and chemical fertilizers. Ours is a destination for those who are curious to discover how to be part of a brighter future for local food production and consumption.

FRIDAY AFTERNOON ARRIVAL

Arrive on Friday afternoon after 4:00pm to our Saskatoon Lounge to be greeted by a crackling fire and our friendly staff. We’ll set you up with farm provisions, wine, light bites. We’ll also have a have a campfire ablaze and s’mores kits for anyone who wants to sit under the stars with a blanket and a hot chocolate. We’ll welcome all guests to join us for nature-infused refreshments at the Saskatoon lounge after 6:00pm. 

Our yoga practitioner will be available to meet guests from 6:00-7:00pm to help set a restorative intention for your weekend with us. Guests will be invited to join a Yoga Nidra and guided meditation practice from 7:00-8:00pm to help you drift into an evening of relaxation.  

Yoga Nidra: “Yogic Sleep” is a deep relaxation technique and a form of meditation. Yoga Nidra is the state between sleeping and waking. The body is completely relaxed and the practitioner turns your awareness inward by listening to a set of instructions; much like a guided meditation. Yoga Nidra practice results in deep relaxation and expands an individual’s self-awareness.

SATURDAY MORNING

Enjoy a taste of our farm with your very own farmer’s breakfast kit in your cabin.

From 9:00am – 12:00pm, guests are invited to join a unique Forest Bathing experience. On this guided activity, you will be invited to slow down and connect with the natural world through a gentle awakening of your senses. Through a series of guided invitations, you will experience the sounds, smells, sights, tastes and textures of the forest around you. The walk will end with hot tea to complete the experience. Forest walks offer health benefits supported by scientific research from around the world that includes lowering blood pressure, heart rate, and stress levels.

SATURDAY AFTERNOON

We’ll welcome guests to a family style lunch at 12:00pm featuring seasonal flavors from our farm at our Toadhouse event venue.

Explore herbs, history, and growing plants in our aquaponic system.

At 1:00pm our Garden to Glass Mixology experience begins. We’ll begin your journey with a guided tour of our aquaponic greenhouse to learn about growing plants healthfully in a closed water based system where fish supply natural fertilizers. Our farm team is currently experimenting with many edible flowers and herbs as well as 9 unique basil plants including traditional sweet Genovese, liquorish Thai, tea-friendly Tulsi, and the small leafed Spicy Bush basil varietals. You’ll get to see these plants at all stages of development from seedling to full maturity. We’ll walk you through harvesting techniques and provide tips to help you get the most of harvesting herbs of your own.

Learn tools and techniques to transform fresh garden herbs into delicious drinks.

At 2:00pm, and with holistic plant knowledge fresh on your mind, we’ll take you further on a journey into plant-based mixology. With a fresh harvest of basil and other herbs, our culinary team will show you how to mix and infuse unique flavors to create delicious cocktails and alcohol-free mocktails that everyone can enjoy. This is a hands-on, active, and fun activity for individuals and groups to enjoy.

SATURDAY EVENING

If we had to pick one thing as our main event of the weekend, we’d tell you it’s our Farm-to-Fork signature dinner. Crafted by a unique partnership between our culinary and farm teams, our signature dinner offers seasonal flavors and regeneratively raised proteins direct from our farm and local partners. Each of our four courses is specially paired with a beer, wine, or non-alcoholic beverage to compliment your meal.

Dinner reception starts at 6:00pm and service will end at 8:00pm.

SUNDAY MORNING

Wake to the sound of the trees blowing in the wind, and the birds chirping for your final restful day at our farm (unless of course, you’d like to stay with us a little longer).

At 9:00am we welcome you to finish your regenerative retreat with a morning Yoga Flow and mindfulness exercise at our Saskatoon Lounge. Our yoga teachers deliver a course suitable for all levels (no yoga experience required).  

After a good morning stretch, you may check out of your cabin and join us at the Toadhouse for our signature Sunday Brunch between 10:30am-1:30pm. You’ll be welcome to enjoy our farm inspired buffet with all your favorite brunch classics.
