Fall Equinox- An Island Retreat
There’s no place like the San Juan Islands- let's explore the beauty of these islands by the Salish Sea that we call home! Enjoy a tranquil and wholesome weekend on Lopez Island at a peaceful farm stay as we transition into fall- The retreat includes vitalizing and grounding practices with Mariana, a sound bath, daily sauna time, a poetry workshop to get all of our creative juices flowing, and locally sourced meals throughout your stay. Take time to slow down and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, meet the farm animals, explore the nearby trails, sunbathe or cool down by the pond.
About the stay-
Midnight’s Farm sits on a 100‑acre diversified property with pastures, a pond, a market garden, composting site, and a large barn. It is much more than a working farm—it's a regenerative hub offering high-quality meat and produce, ecological innovation, educational experiences, and a quiet, immersive retreat in the stunning Lopez Island.
To create a deeper connection to nature and our surroundings we will be camping on the farm’s expansive property near the sunny fields by the pond and the yoga studio. Option to borrow camping gear is available upon request. For those who desire a more comfortable yet still rustic feel, the farm offers a charming 2‑bedroom, 1‑bath guest house (2 queens + 1 twin) that can operate as housing for up to 5 guests- with the option to share this accommodation with a friend or other participants.
Travel
Ferry schedule will vary depending on which ferry terminal you will be departing from. The farm is located about a 10-minute drive, or 30-minute bike ride from the ferry terminal and there is plenty of parking for those who are planning to drive on. If you are not planning to drive on, please let us know and we can arrange a ride share or pick-up for you.
