Mothers come in all forms on our family farm, but topping our list is our Mom (aka Pat, Mrs. Stumpf, Ms. Pat, Mommom, Aunt Pat)
She has a servant heart and friendly, cheerful spirit greeting many of our Trails Getaway and Bed & Barn guests.
Take a guess how many gallons of iced tea she’s delivered to the hayfield over the years? Too many to count. Thanks, Mom, for all you’ve done and all you are!

Happy Mother’s Day, farm friends & farm family.
Send our Mom a “hello” by commenting on this post and then reserve your 2024 visit if you haven’t already.
