Summary
Our Western Massachusetts Eco-Friendly Vegetarian/Vegan B&B and Retreat is a 1790 restored farmhouse with an attached artist/writer studio and barn (flower arranging and painting studio). The buildings are surrounded by rambling organic gardens, forest, marvelous sky and landscapes, cross-country skiing and snow shoeing on a twenty-acre hillside (ten acres are in wildlife conservation) in the foothills of the Berkshires just six miles west of Northampton, Massachusetts.
We have three private, spacious, charming and imaginative guest apartments. Separately or together, the three apartments make for an ideal getaway for those seeking privacy and quiet in a charming, eco-friendly country atmosphere. Family reunions are welcome. Writers, artists or others in search of a comfortable, inspiring retreat are welcome for independent extended stays.
A Continental certified-organic vegetarian / vegan Breakfast is offered to B&B guests. We offer fresh baked muffins - which in season may be jazzed up with our own high bush blueberries, currants and raspberries - fruit, juice, tea and fresh ground organic/fair trade coffee. Breakfast is brought to your apartment. Flower Hill Farm is committed to supporting local organic farmers/growers. We buy only certified organic foods. Our coffee and teas are organic and fair trade. If you are an independent guest we hope you will do the same.
Outside the walls of the old farmhouse and studio nature abounds with wonders. There are no pets here, but many butterflies, songbirds, fireflies, grouse, wild turkey, woodcock and other creatures of the wild live in our gardens and forest. Guests enjoy breathtaking views -- sunrise, moonrise and stargazing too! Woodland and garden paths along with a country road offer inspiring walks... Don't miss a moonlight walk through the gardens. Hundreds of varieties of plants, shrubs, ornamental and fruit trees add to your outdoor experience throughout the seasons.
